Public bug reported: I'm currently testing Xubuntu 18.04 after a do-release-upgrade from 16.04.
I discovered a very weird issue. When doing S3 sleep via closing the lid, on resume the lock screen appears, I authenticate, but as soon as it switches to the user session the screen goes blank - not even a backlight. Switching to other ttys works and they display correctly but the GUI user session remains blank. If the system is manually suspended (not using the lid), then resumed either by opening the lid or pressing the power button, the GUI user session is fine. I narrowed it down to xfce4-power-manager and discovered disabling the lock-screen cured the issue. I cloned the repository and reviewed commits between 1.7 and 1.8. Fortunately there aren't many. Looking at 6365683 "Proper exit status for light-locker-command" I suspected the change in the SetActive return value, and reverted it. After a build/install cycle I've found the system now behaves correctly so I think the change should be reverted.
