Here's what I have for notes so far, a summary of changes I'll try.
Comments, thoughts, insight?
(from Ubuntu Forums thread):
Try turning off wireless, then suspend & resume, as a test.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
Add under the “Device” section:
Option “NvAGP” “1"
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
add
blacklist intel_agp
blacklist agpgart
/etc/default/acpi-support
change
ACPI_SLEEP=true
ACPI_HIBERNATE=true
SAVE_VBE_STATE=false
POST_VIDEO=false
SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true (uncomment)
---(Ubuntu Forums post also added):
USE_DPMS=false
DOUBLE_CONSOLE_SWITCH=true (uncomment)
----(dreamhosters site suggests this for acpi-support file:
acpi-support file:
# Save and restore video state?
#SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true (will try this later...)
Compiz:
"...Finally if you’re using compiz (desktop-effects) in conjunction with
NVIDIA binary drivers, make sure your “Sync to VBLANK” option in
“Advanced Desktop Effects Settings > General > Display settings” is
*disabled*. You can set this option to false by running:
gconftool –set /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/sync_to_vblank 0
–type bool
..."
(from one source, taksuyama.com)
/etc/pm/config.d/suspend
add
SUSPEND_MODULES=ath_pci (or whatever the wireless driver is)
(from two other sources, dreamhosters.com & Ubuntu Forum):
/etc/acpi/wireless.sh - because of Intel Pro Wireless 2200bg [ipw2200] wifi:
< echo -n 2 > $DEVICE/device/power/state;

(this means replace "echo -n 2" with "echo -n 3")
