Comment 65 for bug 34043

I'm on intrepid ibex 8.10 on a dell inspiron 8500 with nvidia geforce 4200.
For the record I now have suspend/hibernate/resume working. (haven't tried multiple consecutive yet)

For me initially if i recall correctly, hibernate would hang on resuming, and suspend would fail to turn the the laptop's screen back on.

The thing that confused me most, having read all the links etc, is that under 8.10 xorg.conf appears to be empty by default. I applied all the other settings mentioned, and I'm not sure what cured hibernate, but that started working first.

The thing that seemed to get the display to come back on after suspend was running the nvidia settings program and unchecking 'sync to vblank' under 'xvideo settings'/'video texture adapter' and rebooting. This created some content in my xorg. I have no idea if it started working directly or indirectly because of what I did.

I never set the NvAGP setting in the end.
