Congratulations Sir Rix; Your tuxonice patch was installed! Both issues #1 & #2 are entirely due to the tuxonice patch. You can get support directly from #tux-on-ice on irc.freenode.net. Since I am assuming that your old kernel worked, can you do a diff between your old config and this new config for us just to verify?
