Suspend and hibernate in F9 with nVidia Quadro FX 570M

[Matthew Saltzman]

Here's my latest experience with the above configuration (ThinkPad
T61p).

With the nv driver:
      * Hibernate works fine
      * The machine suspends to RAM, but on resume, the backlight is
        off.  I tried several combinations of quirks on the pm-suspend
        command, but none seemed to change the behavior.

With the latest nvidia driver (rebuilt from Livna RPMs, as Livna's build
system is still down):
      * The machine hibernates, but freezes on resume.
      * The machine suspends, but on resume, it takes over a minute for
        the screen to come back.  The machine beeps a few times, and
        when the screen displays, there is a pop-up indicating a kernel
        error.  The machine appears functional

Does anyone have these things working reliably?  What are the magic
quirks for nv suspend?  Anyone know what's up with the kernel error?

Thanks.
