Comment 12 for bug 754711

OK, so I reinstalled the 32-bit kernel, however I'm unable to go to a vt to see if it gives a panic message while suspending, when I press say ctrl+alt+f1 the graphical cursor disappears but the rest of the desktop stays visible, looks like the display didn't get reset to text mode, so I can't see what I'm typing (and certainly no debugging messages). if I press alt+f7 I "go back" to graphical mode, the cursor reappears and the screen is responsive again.

The only way I found to get to a console was to use xforcevesa nomodeset, though of course that probably changes things in other ways (like not using the nouveau driver). The system enters suspend and of course, upon resuming, the screen is blank (with no backlight). However other than that, the system appears to have recovered, as I was able to ssh in and recover a dmesg file I'm attaching.
