On Dell Latitude D400 It doesn't seem to make any difference what settings are set in either power manager or light-locker. Black screen with frozen mouse appears every time laptop lid is opened after suspend by laptop close. No issue if keyboard "Suspend" key or "Suspend" button from log-off menu clicked before closing the lid. In these cases, the laptop resumes correctly on lid open.

Given the upgrade path from 12.04.4 LTS to 14.04.1 LTS, ANY fix that requires de-installing packages or grep editing of conf files is, in my opinion, completely counter to the Ubuntu ethic. This bug remains a huge inconvenience, I'd go as far as saying a killer issue, for most users. I'm on the verge of rolling back in frustration to 12.04 myself.

An update from the Xubuntu team would be much appreciated.
