If you take a quick look through the archives, of the last 3 months, you will 
find a thread which discusses this problem --> there is a patch for the agp

http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/agp_cvs.patch

, which after some re-compile business makes it possible to resume from suspend 
+ there is also a dpms patch which increases the suspend time (battery time).

I'm myself using a R51 ...
