I tested henk's patch mentioned in this thread (comment 63) 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278#c63 , applied on top of 
linux-2.6.36-rc5. 
It only works for me if I increase the delays to 900ms (500 and 300 don't work, 
I haven't tried any values between 900 and 500), but it really seems to fix the 
black screen. I can see the bootloader and the login screen now, and I can 
resume from suspend.  The cardreader is supported by default. I haven't tested 
VGA output yet but I guess that works, too. 

I tried to upload my deb packages to a PPA but I couldn't figure out how
to do it, so I'm going to try to add them as an attachment.
