So I thought... what the hell, suspend would be nice!
My setup is Hardy 8.04.1 with updates and backports and proposed and several PPAs and envy-ng with nvidia drivers: 173.14.12
Abit NF7-S mobo (NForce 2 Ultra)
Geforce 5900XT AGP
Never suspended correctly before in Windows XP
So I set the option in xorg.conf in Section "Device"
Option "NvAGP" "1"
And I changed the 2 options in /etc/default/acpi-support
SAVE_VBE_STATE=false
POST_VIDEO=false
AND guess what!! it F@#$#@king works for the first time ever!!! I'm so happy I could cry!!
Previously it would sleep ok.. then it would just beep continously with a blank screen until reset when you tried to wake up.
Any disadvantage to NvAGP "1" I should know?
If not, this should seriously be the default!
OK!!
So for ages now I've just thought my motherboard was not supported...
Stumbled across this bug and the https:/ /help.ubuntu. com/community/ NvidiaLaptopBin aryDriverSuspen d pages...
