this is an inspiron 1110


> $ cat /etc/default/acpi-support

at the top of my file is something extra:

SUSPEND_METHODS="dbus-pm dbus-hal pm-utils"


<snip, this is all the same>

> # Should we save and restore state using the VESA BIOS Extensions?
> SAVE_VBE_STATE=true

this line was commented out.  i uncommented it.  still no video after
resume.


<snip, this is all the same>

> # Save and restore video state?
> # SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true

this was uncommented.  i commented it out.  still no video after resume.


<snip, this is all the same>

> # Spindown time on battery
> SPINDOWN_TIME=12

didn't have this line. i tried adding it.  still no video after resume.

i had this extra line at the end:

SKIP_INTERFACES="dummy qemu"

i tried commenting it out.  still no video after resume.


so, to sum up, i basically just looked thru your acpi-support file from
the top down and, when i saw a difference, i changed my own acpi-support
file.  then i shutdown the computer, restarted it, and tried suspending
and resuming.  then i moved down the rest of the file and repeated the
procedure.  so, i edited acpi-supportm shutdown, restarted, suspended,
and resumed about four times, i think.  now my acpi-support file looks
just like yours.
