:) thx, that worked!!!
for the archives, the right command with sudo is 

sudo sh -c "vidcontrol -s 2 < /dev/ttyv0"

(otherwise < is run with your current user's credentials, and most
likely you'll get access denied).

now, to test suspend/resume via devd with VTY change (manually) with DRI
enabled ... hopefully it wont crash and I can have acceleration again :)
