Are you using Compiz when tranquilizing your computer? Have you tried with Compiz deactivated?

You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on.

Ok, let us do some debugging. Firstly, change to vesa driver (Control Center - Hardware - Screens and Graphics - Graphics card tab). Select the vesa driver, reboot and try sleeping with that. If that works, this is a driver issue and you just have to wait until it is fixed, maybe post a bugreport about it.
Ohh, and backup the xorg.conf file first:

Code: Select all

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~/xorg.confBAK
To restore it use:

Code: Select all

sudo cp ~/xorg.confBAK /etc/X11/xorg.conf
