I had the same problem after some X server updates in Ubuntu 12.04. The screen went black ( in fact in white color) after I reopened the screen lid.

This is how I solved it. In synaptic, I can see the version of xserver-xorg-core is 2:1.11.4-0ubuntu10.6. I choose "Force version" and downgrade it to 2:1.11.4-0ubuntu10. Then there is no problem anymore. (BTW, I use the latest verion of compiz and there is no problem).

I am using Thinkpad W520 with latest nvidia-current driver installed.
