Fedora 9 on Dell D820

Has anyone got sleep/hibernate to work with this laptop?  I can put the laptop to sleep but when it tries to wake up then I see thin vertical color fragmented lines.  Followed by what appears to be a X windows mouse cursor.  It continues in this loop every 5-10 seconds.

I just converted to Linux trying to use it as a base with vmware running my windows xp (crap).

I'd love to be able to sleep instead of having to reboot all the time.

I am running on a D820 without any problems.  You will have to use the
NVidia driver not the open source nv driver if you want
suspend/hibernate.
