I have also had similar problems, although not necessarily after suspending for a long time. Using ps aux in another virtual terminal, I could see xscreeensaver-command processes hung from before going to sleep. I suspect a race condition due to the "&" at the first line of /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank . Could you guys please check next time this happens, if there is xscreensaver-command processes around ? And if so, try removing that "&" ?
