I can confirm for a nVidia 6600GT chipset, I have to set SAVE_VBE_STATE=false (or uncomment the default, which is true).

When I've later accessed the "Monitor & Display" section in KDE's "System Settings", it printed "VESA BIOS Extensions not detected." to the console. So probably a fix would be to use SAVE_VBE_STATE only if the extension is present..?

Also running the grub console and typing "vbeprobe" displays:
grub> vbeprobe
 VBE BIOS is not present.

I've not set the "NvAGP" option in xorg.conf (only RenderAccel=true and NoLogo=true).

POST_VIDEO is true, but does not get used in /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh. I've not tried suspend to ram, only to disk (hibernate).

It would be great, if this could get worked out for Edgy.

The fix from Paul just seems the way to go. Thank you.
