After resume from suspend the screen was black. This happened before when running an application that covered 70% of the screen (a black banner on the bottom of the screen 50% of screen hight). Workaround: System Settings -> Appearance -> Colors & Gradients choose single color (will switch to blue) choose gradient again (will show two previously selected colors) Screen changes accordingly The graphics card works fine.
