Running Xfce 4.10
xfce4-power-manager-1.2.0-9.fc20.x86_64
Kernel 3.15.10-200.fc20.x86_64
xscreensaver-base-5.29-1.fc20.x86_64

With the 3.15.x kernel came a problem with the screen not restoring from suspend. I had a thread going about this on Fedora Forums and had been following a bugzilla report. However, I now believe the problem is in how xfce4-power-manager handles restore.

If I use the power manager settings and have the option on the Extended tab for "Lock screen on suspend" checked, this problem shows up. I was looking at this and unchecked the option, and the system now resumes and restores the screen display properly upon resume from suspend.

I tried this with both the stock open-source radeon driver and the AMD Catalyst driver.

I do not know what changed between the 3.14 and 3.15 kernels that caused this problem to manifest. I'm also not sure if xscreensaver has anything to do with this. I do not have power management enabled there.
