For the folks in comments 260-263: this bug is just about these symptoms under Intel video hardware. You all mention nvidia or radeon,,so that's different . (It doesn't matter if it's an Intel CPU.) With hundreds of posts here, you may not have seen what Daniel wrote in #196 :
"Hi all. We need to be focussed and specific or else bugs like this never get resolved. Since all the stacks I have seen so far have been identical hangs in i965_dri.so, I have now clarified that this is an Intel graphics driver bug. Although a workaround in compiz might still be possible. If you're not using Intel graphics, please log a new bug. [...]" Or there may be similar bugs filed about those drivers. I'm sorry I can't point you to them right now. And if there is a compiz workaround, that might help you, so subscribe to this bug if you want. But reporting information about non-Intel video will unfortunately just clog this bug, not help it. I guess I'll put some form of that information into the main description, since seeing [i965] in the title isn't going to clarify that for everybody. And if we know other bugs to subscribe to, for other hardware, we might mention them there, too.

If you're having these symptoms with other hardware, Nvidia or ATI/Radeon, this isn't the place for reports or questions. [Those comments are building up, so brief links to direct other people to appropriate bugs might be good here, if anyone has them. Thanks.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This happens intermittently. Sometimes upon resume, all I see is a black screen and the cursor. the mouse and keyboard respond (the mouse moves) but nothing changes. Switching to console and back doesn't fix it. Killing Compiz also does not fix the issue. Further, if one has password lock disabled on resume the user will be stuck with a frozen display of whatever was last shown on the screen before suspend. The mouse cursor still changes as you hover over various elements but the display is frozen solid. One can switch to another TTY via ctrl+alt+F1 but killing the X session is the only way to get back to the desktop. Attempts to replace compiz have been fruitless. Trying the 3.4 kernel also did not fix the issue. BTW, I haven nothing connected to the laptop when I resume and before suspend. This is a very annoying issue because the only way to recover is to reboot, which means all the open files will be lost. [UPDATE] It was discovered that switching to a tty, killing compiz, then invoking 'metacity --replace' would successfully switch over to metacity. Attempting to invoke 'compiz --replace' afterwards would put the state right back where it was (frozen screen, etc.) and output error messages saying something similar to "invalid configuration, this should never happen, you should probably raise a bug report about it". After killing Compiz again and invoking compiz --replace yet again I can get basic window management back (though unity --replace still does not work as it whines about unclean exit states). So one still needs to start over again to get it all functioning properly.
