This is an fbdev problem, I guess.  I'll reassign the report.

Latest working kernel version:2.6.29-rc5
Earliest failing kernel version:not tested

I assume what you mean here is that 2.6.29-rc5 fails, and that you're
not aware of any earlier kernel version which did not fail.

Distribution:debian lenny
Hardware Environment:asus f3jc
Software Environment:
Problem Description: s2disk hangs before switching to console ("s2disk:
Snapshotting system" message ->REISUB) with nvidiafb.

Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Support for frame buffer devices -> [*]
nVidia Framebuffer Support
dmesg.0 | grep buf
[    1.658735] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 160x50
[    1.659929] nvidiafb: PCI nVidia NV1d framebuffer (64MB @ 0xC0000000)

hangs.

Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Support for frame buffer devices -> []

dmesg | grep buf
[    0.802424] vesafb: framebuffer at 0xc0000000, mapped to 0xf8080000, using

[    0.862236] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48
[    0.922487] fb0: VESA VGA frame buffer device

in this case everything works OK.
