Bug #134464 is marked as a duplicate of this bug. They are related, but I don't think the corrupt row of pixels has anything to do with suspend/resume. I think that's a spurious coincidence.

I see the same screen corruption people have described (and shown in pictures), but _without_ suspend/resume.

The corrupt part row of pixels is visible after first starting X, as soon as I enable dual head mode with xrandr.

Suspend/resume makes no difference.

I tried Peter Clifton's package linked earlier here and that doesn't fix the corruption for me.

As I reported in #134464, Bryce Harrington's git head package from October 4th does fix the screen corruption for me. (It also fixes Xv). I didn't change X or ACPI config in any way. No need to disable DRI, touch ACPI, etc.

So I suggest other people try this package, and see if it fixes the problem for them:
