[Glenn Chugg <LiveFreeDead@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I downloaded the current trusty image, Live OS had same problem,
Installed OS had same problem.

I updated mainline kernel and had similar problem. The screen came back
corrupted for 1/2 a second, then it went to a black screen with a mouse
cursor (movable), so the recent changes are doing something different,
but not what I need, even if it would restart the GUI session if it
times out (stops responding) instead of locking up/giving up on the x
session, I could live with that.

I was unable to get it to re-start a new x session using ctrl+alt + F1
and typing startx like I could with previous tests.

Title:
  10de:1244 [Asus MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z] Nouveau Sleep/Wake problem in
  Ubuntu 13.04+

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am using a nVidia Graphics with default drivers and I am unable to
  wake up my system without it being crashed with garbage on the screen.

  This happens in LiveCD mode or installed and all versions of
  Kubuntu/Ubuntu/Gbunutu that I have tested, all of them are the same
  result. This has stopped moving to Linux when I need it most (Windows
  8/8.1 is terrible) I had reported that I thought it was due to dual
  graphics (Switchable) but I've disabled the intel graphics in BIOS and
  the problem persisted. I think this is a Kernel level problem or
  perhaps xOrg related. I can offer no other information as the only
  thing I can do is reboot the system and disable sleep entirely.

  -EDIT's-

  * This bug affects all distro's using the same (Above April 2012)
  kernel versions, all buntu versions, Fedora, SUSE and Mint (these are
  the only ones I've tested for this bug).

  WORKAROUND: Use nvidia drivers in 13.10 (Only tested with the Ubuntu
  distribution).

  WORKAROUND: Using nouveau (This worked for 12.04 and less in my testing on the same hardware reported in initial bug, it doesn't fix the graphical bug in 13.04 or 13.10, this may be an unrelated workaround):
  # Be root
  sudo su

  # Edit this file
  vim /etc/pm/sleep.d/05_xhci

  Here is the content of this file
  ------------------------
  #!/bin/sh
  # Fix some issues with USB3

  if [ "$1" = "suspend" ]
  then
          modprobe -r xhci_hcd
  fi

  if [ "$1" = "resume" ]
  then
          modprobe xhci_hcd
  fi
  ---------------

  # Change access right (not sure it's necessary)
  chmod 755 /etc/pm/sleep.d/05_xhci
