That Was Quick.
And, suddenly, Hibernation no longer works. I installed the nvidia-glx package and activated it, and hibernation doesn't resume anymore.
I discovered that Ubuntu doesn't use SoftwareSuspend2, but instead the original SoftwareSuspend that is included in the kernel. From reading a bit, I've found that version 2 works much better. I also found a guide on the Ubuntu forums that I'm currently following to get hibernation working with the proprietary NVidia driver.
We'll see how this goes.

But the thing is, I have never gotten any other distro to hibernate. Ever. The fact that Ubuntu could is encouragement enough for me. The only reason it didn't work was because I installed and activated the NVidia drivers.
And, this isn't an Ubuntu specific problem. It's a problem with the proprietary NVidia drivers. The guide I'm following actually guides you through and makes you modify a section of the NVidia code so it can be hibernated.
Whoopie! The kernel compilation just ended! Now onto the next step...
