I am not 100% sure problem 1 and 2 are truly OpenChrome DDX related.
At this point, OpenChrome DDX is probably the only non-KMS DDX that tries to
even handle STR (Suspend to RAM or ACPI S3 State; the particular type of
standby mode we are dealing with) resume.

I think this might be code changes I may have made while ago related to gamma
correction.
Does this problem show up prior to standby?
Personally, I will consider this a separate bug, and you may want to file a new
bug report.

The Xorg.0.log after the standby resume will be helpful.
Also, "via_regs_dump -d" after the standby resume is important.
Due to the color / monochrome register mapping issue that shows up, you may
have to resort to obtaining a few key register values one at a time.
