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/NvidiaLaptopBinaryDriverSuspend
pages...

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 [EMAIL PROTECTED]@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!

Thanks to all the hackers that discovered this!
I'm going to post this to brainstom idea 94:
