Note that this bug was reported back in 2011
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/894308 so it is not new.
The graphics card is not recognized at all and the system boots in an innapropriate, unchangeable resolution if
nomodeset is added to the boot options

Title:
  ACER Aspire 5100 laptop Suspend/Resume Failure

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On this old laptop, Ubunutu 14.04 works fine on boot (after making
  sure fgrlx drivers are removed).

  However after a Suspend/Resume the screen flickers/tears so badly as to make the system unusable.
  Note that the problem does not occur with Hibernate/Resume. In fact if I can get the focus into a terminal while the
  screen is flickering and do a $ sudo pm_hibernate, the screen will be okay on Resume.

  Separately the wifi (b43) vanishes after a Resume, but I'll file a
  separate report on that later.
