Suspend to disk is another issue, with similar symptoms. This is pretty regular for a Linux laptop. In many of these cases, the cause of the problem is a hardware vendor’s poor implementation of the ACPI. I’ve checked and I am already using the current version of the BIOS.

Here’s the good news about it for me. If I use the keyboard to switch to a tty login, the monitor wakes back up. I can then use the keyboard to switch back to my KDM.

I have not tested it with suspend to disk yet. Let me know if this works on your laptop (comment on the bug report).
