I wasn't aware that the proprietary driver was more stable; I was used
to the ATI world where the open-source driver was very high-quality and
the proprietary driver was flaky.  Anyway, I've switched to the
proprietary NVidia driver and everything seems to be OK thus far, and
suspend even still works.

Thanks for the suggestion!
