Public bug reported:

I'm using 12.04 64bit latest
uname -a
Linux xps-Dell-System-XPS-L702X 3.2.0-65-generic #98-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 11 
20:27:07 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

on a Dell XPS L702X (this has a builtin Intel graphics and the GeForce
GT550M card.)

When I close the lid to suspend & resume, sometimes (not always), I just
get a backlit black screen with a moveable cursor... but the rest of the
screen doesn't come back. I can hear other apps
resumming/running/connecting ok.

When this happens, all I normally do is the ALT-PRNTSCR + R,E,I,S,U,B to
hopefully safely reboot.

I did find this bug - which looks like my exact problem, but the bug
says fixed (& is pretty old - 2012)

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-
intel/+bug/966744

- suggestions at the end are to raise a new bug under "xserver-xorg-
video-intel" - hence this log.

In my Xorg.log, it shows the;
[ 13226.757] (WW) intel(0): flip queue failed: Invalid argument
[ 13226.757] (WW) intel(0): Page flip failed: Invalid argument

- mentioned in the original bug as the possible problem.

hope someone can help/point me in the right direction. thanks.

3] I expect the lid to close & suspend. When I re-open the lid I expect
ubuntu to resume

4] Most times this work. Sometimes (random - maybe 1 in 5 to 1 in 10)
the machines resumes, but the screen remains black (but backlit) with
just a moveable mouse arrow. Apps start, but no further screen display.
I have to reboot.
