Can't resume from hibernate with FC14

Hi,
I just installed FC14 on an older Dell Inspiron 8500 with an NVidea
GeForce4 graphics card. To get the graphics working properly, I had to
uninstall nvidia-nouveau driver and replace it with the rpmfusion nvidia
drivers as per http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=204752.
Unfortunately, neither the suspend or hibernate seem to work. They both
manage to shutdown the PC, but when the time comes to resume, the system
does not boot back up properly; it freezes at a black screen. I do see
a couple of error messages, and the caps lock/num lock buttons freeze.
The only option is to cold boot the machine at this point.
I can't see anything particularly special in /var/log/messages, and am
not sure if there are any other files that may have additional information.
The error messages I get when going into hibernate mode are as follows:
pm_op(): pci_pm_thaw +0x0/0x59 returns -16
PM: Device 0000:00:00.0 failed to thaw: error -16
Can anyone help steer me in the right direction? I have no idea what
those error messages mean. I am extremely frustrated, and it is
becoming increasingly difficult to work with a laptop that I cannot
hibernate as I take it back and forth to the office every day.
Thanks!
Eric
