Last week NVIDIA presented the new 100.14.19 Linux display driver, but NVIDIA had also quietly released two new legacy drivers. The NVIDIA 71.86.01 and 96.43.01 releases basically offer X.Org 7.3 compatibility and support for the latest Linux 2.6 kernels.
100.14.19 breaks resume support for me with my 6800go so back to 100.14.11 it is.
shame as the new driver fixed an issue changing virtual terminal when using beryl/compiz/fusion.
