Dear developers,

I've found the following messages in my syslog after a suspend2ram cycle,
(And similar repeated a few times, all between "freezing userspace" and
"back to C".)

I know the system is tainted / running the fglrx module, and (to me) it
even looks like this might be causing the problem.

So - I'm not asking for a solution, but could cou please please give me a
rough hint what the error message means???

TIA, best, Andreas

(Of course I'd be happy to provide more info.)
