I believe it's exactly the same bug as the one in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278 .

For the moment I'm running a modified 2.6.35 kernel. I tweaked it to support the e6510's card reader, and I also fixed the blank screen issue by reverting the patch mentioned here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278#c5 . Apparently, this is not really a proper fix, but it works and it supports external monitors. For suspend and resume, I use the workaround mentioned here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/578673?comments=all . I'm aware that not all this information is relevant to the issue reported here, but I just wanted to give an overview of issues and possible workarounds.
