Description:
The NVidia driver "freezes" and corrupts screen after resume from suspend on laptop. It is not recoverable without first switching VT and restarting X. After some research I realised the same bug was also confirmed and very recently patched on Ubuntu (see additional info below). This is currently a show stopper for running any NVidia driver option on this laptop (card is a 2Gb GeForce GT 650M). The Nouveau driver is also not an option since it reports no devices found even though lsmod reports the nouveau module as loaded. $ uname -r 3.13.6-1-ARCH Additional info: * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1210077 |

Edit:
Based on the Ubuntu bug and patch this might be a temporary work around: http://ix.io/b9e

I only did 1 suspend/resume cycle test, but it locked up my machine in addition to the graphics corruption, so I didn't do any more.
