I suspect the graphics memory is not being saved. Suspend-to-ram works fine.</p> <p>It also looks like the font-cache is corrupted, as all letters are corrupted consistently. </p> <p><strong>Logging out and back in again fixes it</strong>, but I don't want to have to do that. I have been logging-out then hibernating, but this is more effort and eliminates most of the benefit of hibernate. </p> <p><strong>Is there another way to refresh the X11 display?</strong> The Ctrl+Alt+F1 ... does not work. It switches back to X11 instantly, but still corrupted</p> <p>I am using Debian 6</p>enMon, 04 Jul 2011 18:12:08 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2580/screen-corruption-after-hibernate-is-there-another-way-to-refresh-the-x11-display#2628<p>Yes logging-out and back in again fixes it. Am I miss understanding this as I believe that these are 2 ways to quickly and inelegantly log-out. As I am trying to avoid logging out this will not be of help.</p>daves dadMon, 04 Jul 2011 18:12:08 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2580/screen-corruption-after-hibernate-is-there-another-way-to-refresh-the-x11-display#2628http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2580/screen-corruption-after-hibernate-is-there-another-way-to-refresh-the-x11-display/2626<p>sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver to start with.... maybe something got hosed up in the configuration of it somehow that is cause Hibernate to bork up the system?
