If vbestate is saved and restored on suspend/resume, when the machine resumes I
get no video.

To post a comment you must log in.
After boot, could you switch to a text console (ctrl+alt+F1) and log in, then do
the following:
sudo su
vbetool vbestate save >/tmp/vbestate
vbetool vbestate restore </tmp/vbestate
and then press ctrl+alt+F7 to switch back to X. Does this work?
Could you let us know which video driver (nv or nvidia) you're using?
