Suspend/resume was broken in nvidia since release on aug 2024. I have internal bug id for it. And dozen links with suspend scripts. No more drivers I mean I don't need to install dozens of packages. While it not big deal by itself, but reverting broken driver is huge deal. Laggy desktop -- this is my experience until nov 2025 when I dumped nvidia. Desktop on both intel and amd feels like magic after nvidia.

Suspend/resume is broken for my friend with an AMD card right now. That's what I mean: it's broken everywhere in slightly different ways, yes even on Windows. Thankfully I never use it anyway.

Dunno anything about dozens of packages, I installed 1 (one) package from my distro and haven't touched it since, no issues with updates either. That same friend with an AMD card keeps getting random hard PC freezes during gaming though.

Also absolutely zero issues with lags/latency for me (on GNOME. I did experience a bunch of weird bugs with KDE, but again - no lags)

One thing that is very real is DirectX 12 performance. This one really does suffer due to poor nvidia drivers. Hope they iron it out at some point

Suspend/Resume simply nvidia bug: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/cant-resume-from-suspe...

Dozen of packages, official packages, you need bunch of, like, 590.44.01-1 packages installed: https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/deb...

Lags: sorry, I have no more nvidia and can't record video.

It isn't on Lenovo ThinkCentres like M910q tiny. Which has integrated Intel HD630 graphics. Works every single time.

Suspend/resume never worked right, going back to as early as the 2000s

Depends heavily on the used hardware AND firmware of the system. I remember having some no-name laptop with a P166-MMX, and Bios from Systemsoft. That thing managed to successfully suspend and resume anything. Be it just to and from RAM, or to Disk in a separate small partition. By anything I mean exotics like NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, any Linux I threw at it.
