The "nv" driver doesn't know (and can't know) anything about
suspend events. It's handled entirely by the bios and there is
no mechanism for XFree86 to get these ACPI events from the kernel.
Subsequently, the bios will mess up the "nv" driver's state and
the "nv" driver won't know that it needs to be reinitialized.
You have to VT switch to clean things up. I think the only solution
to this problem is to have ACPI support in the kernel and
have the events routed to /dev/apm (which XFree86 supports) or
to some other device and have XFree86 add support for that device.
