Umm.. I did as you asked. Is there anything else I should try or any
additional information I can provide? Do we have any idea why the newer
kernels don't work at all with the graphics card? Should I assume from
silence that this isn't going to be a priority for anyone to work on?

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.
