Yes I'm certain, it's listed by kldstat after all. Also if I deactivate dri, it doesn't get loaded and I can suspend/resume just fine. If I suspend with dri enabled, the system resumes, but as soon as I switch back to X, X hangs (and shows random screen garbage). The rest of the system still works, though. I can ssh into the box and work on it, as if nothing happened. Only if I try to kill X, the whole system will stop responding.
