tuxonice kmdls are built for every kernel Matthias creates. The current
kernels didn't have yet a cubbi counterpart, although Matthias sent me
the F13 update two days ago, so there will soon be kmdls for it. F12
will probably be updated soon as well.

There is a slightly outdated compatibility list on
http://wiki.tuxonice.net/HardwareCompatibility

While the nvidia drivers mentioned are old it looks like they are being
considered and used to work once.
