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: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/94/ -- Nvidia binary driver requires Option "NvAGP" "1" for reliable suspend/resume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/34043 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
