I'm having the same issue on a Dell Latitude D620.  Nothing I've tried
seems to bring the screen back short of a stand-by or a full reboot.

Unfortunately I don't see an option in the BIOS to disable the screen-
blanking.  I have gone through gconf-editor to set the "close lid"
behavior to "do nothing", but still the screen blanks.. so I have a
feeling it's more a hardware thing with Dells and less a software thing.
Hoping that somebody out there can come out with a solution.. it's
relatively embarassing taking my laptop into a meeting and opening up
the lid only to have to reboot the laptop before I can do anything
useful.
