Hi,
I'm trying to get suspend working with the latest nvidia display drivers on my
FC5 box. The latest nvidia release, 8756, is supposed to work with suspend.
(and before anyone asks, the OSS driver nv does work, but with my 1900x1200
screen and geforce fx go 5650) the X performance is pathetic compared to
nvidia's own driver...)
So far I have only been able to do so if I completely disable agp, using the
nvidia xorg.conf option
Option "NvAgp" "0"
however, and only for S4 suspend (disk), where as I really would prefer S3
(mem).
After reading
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8756/README/appendix-q.html
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8756/README/appendix-f.html
I am trying to disable agpgart and in favour of trying nvidia own nvagp, since
there is a suggestion this might work better. However, when I try this (with
Option "NvAgp" "1" ) I get
NVRM: not using NVAGP, an AGPGART backend is loaded!
The readme's do say the agpgart needs to be a kernel module - Is this the case
with FC5 kernel 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 ?
Does anyone have any suggestions for getting suspend working with the nvidia
drivers ? I really really would like to get this work....
