suspend not working in e512+nvidia 7600gt

[JoseLVG]

My ubuntu Hardy x86_64 can't suspend a Dell E521 with a NVidia 7600gt.

(I mention the NVidia card model because this card is not the ATI that usually comes with a Dell E521 and I know that most suspend problems are caused by ATI or NVidia drivers)

When I click on the suspend button the screen boes blank but the machine never goes to sleep.

This is with the POST_VIDEO=false option at /etc/default/acpi-support
AND
"NvAGP" "1" in /etc/x11/xorg.conf

The NVidia 7600GT is a PCIe (not an AGP) card, maybe the "NvAGP" option is not correct or needed?

The 18 month support period for Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 has reached its end of life -
http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-7.10-eol . As a result, we are closing the
linux-backports-modules-2.6.22 task. It would be helpful if you could test the
new Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 release and confirm if this issue remains -
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904overview. If the issue still exists with the Jaunty
release, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux (Ubuntu)"
task from "Incomplete" to "New". Thanks in advance.

Confirmed,
*Jaunty x86_64 with Nvidia driver 180 on a Dell E521+Nvidia 7600GT CANNOT
SUSPEND+RESUME*

In fact, I think it does not even finish the suspend command correctly,
because the power light does not start blinking and the CPU box makes still
a lot of noise. Pressing the power button does nothing, there is no a ttempt
to wake up. You end up pressing the off button to hard reset the machine.
This behaviour is exactly the same as with Intrepid and Hardy.

[It is so sad that still suspend is not supported in this not so new/not so
old machine. It is probably true that we, the linuxers are a bit
machochists.]
