Title: Resume from suspend leaves me with black screen Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm using 12.04 64bit latest uname -a Linux xps-Dell-System-XPS-L702X 3.2.0-65-generic #98-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 11 20:27:07 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux on a Dell XPS L702X (this has a builtin Intel graphics and the GeForce GT550M card.) When I close the lid to suspend & resume, sometimes (not always), I just get a backlit black screen with a moveable cursor... but the rest of the screen doesn't come back. I can hear other apps resumming/running/connecting ok. When this happens, all I normally do is the ALT-PRNTSCR + R,E,I,S,U,B to hopefully safely reboot. I did find this bug - which looks like my exact problem, but the bug says fixed (& is pretty old - 2012) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- intel/+bug/966744 - suggestions at the end are to raise a new bug under "xserver-xorg- video-intel" - hence this log. In my Xorg.log, it shows the; [ 13226.757] (WW) intel(0): flip queue failed: Invalid argument [ 13226.757] (WW) intel(0): Page flip failed: Invalid argument - mentioned in the original bug as the possible problem. hope someone can help/point me in the right direction. thanks.
