Hi Christopher, No, this is completely unrelated to NVidia graphics. My father uses an Intel Core i5 CPU with B75 chipset and the nvidia graphics blob, and he's not affected.
The culprit is the NForce driver, as explained in the kernel mailing list. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1171560 Title: 10de:1183 Suspend to RAM is broken Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On my computer using nvidia 304.88, when I suspend the OS to RAM a blinking cursor appears but the process is halted and the computer does not respond until a hard reboot is performed. Also tested with kernel 3.9rc6 and same behavior happens, so it looks like an upstream bug. I think the regression actually occurred between Precise and Quantal, as under Precise things went smoothly while under Quantal behavior as above occurred.
