This problem occured after upgrading from Ubuntu 11.10
(2:2.15.901-1ubuntu2) to Ubuntu 12.04 (2:2.17.0-1ubuntu4). We have
attempted to update to 2.19 but it still occurs.

Sometimes upon resume, all I see is a black screen and the cursor. the
mouse and keyboard respond (the mouse moves) but nothing changes.
Switching to console and back doesn't fix it. Killing Compiz also does
not fix the issue. Further, if one has password lock disabled on resume
the user will be stuck with a frozen display of whatever was last shown
on the desktop before suspend. The mouse cursor still changes as you
hover over various elements but the display is frozen solid. One can
switch to another TTY via ctrl+alt+F1 but killing the X session is the
only way to get back to the desktop.

This is reproducible in metacity, not just compiz. Trying the 3.4 kernel
also did not fix the issue. All of those affected are Intel-based
machines.

BTW, I haven nothing connected to the laptop when I resume and before
suspend. This is a very annoying issue because the only way to recover
is to kill the X session, which means all the open files will be lost.

Thank you for your time. Please let me know how it can be debugged
further (I understand that this is likely not enough information)

This sounds like the Xserver damage bug. First install all the driver
packages from ppa:xorg-edgers. Then try and reproduce and attach a
drm.debug=6 dmesg and Xorg.log from across the suspend and resume.

Title:
  Resume from suspend leaves me with black screen or a screen of the
  desktop before it suspended (though the mouse still moves/changes
  cursor)
