update: I think I may have found the problem. Whenever booting into Gnome, I got an error message that said "wrong permissions for /dev/pmu". I hunted around and found that the way to fix it is "chown root:user /dev/pmu" then to add yourself to the video group. Following a reboot, suspend and wake seem to be working again! Interesting sidenote: I tried installing udev and it seems that udev will "correct" the ownership of /dev/pmu so that it's "root:root" again, which causes the black screen on wake problem again. apt-get remove udev, then chown'ing again as above solves that. Thanks for your help, folks! Sean
