I have a slightly mor elaborate observation to offer. On our X61, I see the behaviour that lyre describes in comment 10: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/952563/comments/10
I have two user accounts on the system. When resuming, I see the black screen with cursor. I switch to virtual terminal 1 via Ctrl-Alt-F1. I then issue sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart This restores the login window in X, showing a checkmark to indicate the original user still as logged in. If I try to log in to the same, already-in-session account again, I once again get the black screen with X arrow cursor. Lather rinse repeat. If, instead, I log in to the other, not yet logged-in user, I get a fully operational X session. So much for the observations. As for analysis and speculation, I do not pretend to understand how X, compiz, unity, and so on all intertwine, but the presence of the cursor leads me to believe that X's basic functionality has resumed OK but that something specific to the user session is interfering with resuming correctly. I may try to reproduce this with different desktop environments (eg, lubuntu) to see if that makes a difference and provides a workaround. I need suspend/resume much more than I need Unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952563 Title: blank display on thinkpad x201 after resume from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/952563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
