Sam Uong, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could
you please provide the information following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspendHibernateResume ? As well,
can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images
are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . However, note
you can only test Suspend, not Hibernate, when using a LiveCD. If the
issue remains, run the following command in the development release from
a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal) as it will
automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this
report.

apport-collect -p linux <BUGNUMBER>

Additionally, if you could try to reproduce this with the upstream
mainline kernel that would be great. It will allow additional upstream
developers to examine the issue. Refer to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the
upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This
can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag
located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-
upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not
boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.

Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance.

** Description changed:

  I am using a Dell Inspiron M301Z, and I often have an external monitor
  connected to this laptop. When I suspend or hibernate the computer I am
  unable to resume - I just get a black screen. I am not able to reach the
  computer via ssh or even ping.
  
- However when there is no external display plugged in, the laptop is able
- to wake up from suspend without problems.
+ WORKAROUND: Use fglrx.
  
- Also, I have noticed that the proprietary driver (fglrx) does not have
- this problem (but it does have a different set of bugs, which makes it
- unusable on this laptop).
+ WORKAROUND: However when there is no external display plugged in, the
+ laptop is able to wake up from suspend without problems.
