Not sure if it helps, but I get the same issue using Ubuntu 12.10 with
kernel 3.5.0-14-generic -- I am using this on netbook with the
gma500_gfx driver (Dell Mini 12).  When resuming from suspend, I also
get the black screen with mouse-pointer visible.

What I have found out is that upon resuming, if I wait long enough for
the display to be turned off due to inactivity (i.e. the /usr/share
/acpi-support/screenblank script is run), then when I move the mouse or
press a key to wake the display, everything is working normally again,
and the black-screen is no more.

This is reproducible.  In fact, I can just type in my password when the
black screen is there (knowing that there is a password dialog hiding
behind that black screen), blank the screen by running "sudo /usr/share
/acpi-support/screenblank" and typing my password for sudo, and after
the display is turned off (i.e. backlight turns off), when I move the
mouse or hit a key, everything is visible again (i.e. no black screen).

Does this work for anyone else?

By the way, I am not running compiz at all -- just a gnome-classic
session with xmonad.  So at least in my case, this isn't a compiz issue.
