--- Comment #5 from John Baldwin <jhb at FreeBSD.org> ---
There's no practical way to fix resume without a GPU driver.  There's simply no
GPU-independent method of turning the display back on.  A GPU driver is
required to enable the screen on modern systems (on older systems the BIOS
sometimes turned the screen back on for you, but that hasn't been true for
several years now).

However, the original bug report does have the GPU driver it seems (since it is
suspending in X) so is different from the report in comment #4 (which we can
never fix).
