Suspending when X is running on nvidia:
Edit /etc/powersave/sleep
find the line
UNLOAD_MODULES_BEFORE_SUSPEND2RAM="nvidia"

replace it with

UNLOAD_MODULES_BEFORE_SUSPEND2RAM="NONE"

Make sure you modify your xorg configuration to include the nvagp stuff. 
(see below)

If you want to use standby too, don't forget to look at

UNLOAD_MODULES_BEFORE_STANDBY

It worked for me, but that doesn't mean it'll work for you.
