That seems like it could only be a problem in the kernel or in the X
video driver. But since you say that the system freezes (rather than
just the video failing), I'm leaning towards the kernel.

You said this was an Intel 855GM? What kernel are you running? What X
driver are you using? If you can get the Xorg log or dmesg from when
the display fails to come back, that might be helpful.

I'm cc'ing Jesse Barnes to see if he might be more familiar with
resume issues with 855GM. Please keep him in the reply list.
