This is the wrong list for this discussion.    I have a Toshiba 
Satellite.   If your Tosh has an nvidia chip in it you will need the 
nvidia drivers.  You need them because even if you fix the black border( 
which I don't think happens unless you install the nvidia drivers ) you 
will most likely lose your mouse pointer when it comes back from 
suspend.  The mouse cursor will just not show up on the screen.  Most 
people don't catch this right away.
