suspend/hibernate with nvidia on dell latitude 820

Suspend to RAM on the Dell D820, proprietary NVIDIA drivers under Ubuntu Gutsy

It works for Debian Sid too (tested). Anyone tried this on other Dell Latitude models? Please report your results by E-mail ;)

There should be everything here to get it work. That's what I did on a fresh Ubuntu Gutsy, after installing the proprietary driver.
