I also have the blinking cursor problem on my PC running Ubuntu Gusty and the fglrx driver from ATI website (8.40.4) on a ATI Radeon X1600 graphic card.

Like someone said earlier in this report, when gdm is turn off in terminal, suspend to ram works perfectly.
Could this problem be link to gdm? (Does someone on Kubuntu have this bug?)
Or is there a way to tell Ubuntu to stop gdm before suspend (and start it back when resuming)? I know there is a "STOP_SERVICES" variable in /etc/default/acpi-support, but if I put gdm in stop_services, nothing is changed while suspend to ram.

I can post the different logs if you need them.

P.S.: When gdm is stopped, the computer hibernate well (resume is another thing, but at least I don't have the blinking cursor...)
