I've already got apport configured to report everything (i.e., I've
already done the workaround suggested in bug 994921), and there is no
crash either in /var/crash or on https://errors.ubuntu.com. I don't
think a crash is what's happening here.

Additional data:

* If, after I've woken up my laptop and the screen is blank, I put it
back in the dock with the lid closed, the dock's two monitors come alive
just fine.

* If I then open the laptop lid, the monitors reconfigure themselves and
I correctly end up with both the two monitors and the laptop screen all
live.

* Ditto if I then close the lid -- the displays reconfigure themselves
and only the two dock monitors are enabled.

* If I temporarily disable the udev script that causes the laptop to go
to sleep automatically when I undock it, then when I undock it and open
the lid the screen comes on just fine.

* When the screen is in the off-but-should-be-on state I've reported
here, Ctrl-Alt-F* doesn't switch to a different VTY.

* This problem happens _almost_ every time I undock, but not every time.
I've tried it seven or eight times, and one of those times, the screen
came on properly when I woke the laptop by opening the lid. All the
other times the screen never came on until I either power-cycled or put
the laptop back in the dock.
