I had problems with Wifi after suspending. Try this after resuming to
see if it helps:
sudo killall wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant will respawn.
If it works you can automate this for every suspend by creating a file
such as: /etc/pm/sleep.d/99fixwifi.sh
I found parts of the following solutio
y use the Restricted Driver Manager successfully.
It would be good if the Restricted Driver Manager could make this
suggestion or start the process of downloading this tool.

To summarize:
There seems to be three general ideas for fixing vnc4server on Ubuntu.
1. -extension XFIXES (an addition to Xvnc execution)

This is most likely a problem with /etc/vnc.conf not having some sane
