Suspend issues blank srcreen on resume

Hello i`m using 64bit version of Archlinux and a have problem with the suspend when i try to resume the screen stay blank (or black if is correct to say) on my laptop.
The laptop is Fujitsu Siemens amilo notebook pa 3553, or:

processor: amd turion(tm) X2 Dual-Core  Mobile RM-70 (2Ghz)
I tried and three ways for suspend of archwiki they are s2ram, pm-utils, echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
It has one more but i`cant remember just right now. And sorry for pure english but that`s my best one.

[bazu@igoshin ~]$ killall -9 acpid
acpid: no process found
[bazu@igoshin ~]$ sudo killall -9 acpid
acpid: no process found
[bazu@igoshin ~]$ 

but i don`t have any of this

I have the same ati card and just sometimes, not always, i have the issue of the black screen. Didn't really bothered looking around because knowing that i try very hard not to suspend the laptop and when it happens i just smack it and then hard reboot it xD

I`n not sure because i try in archlinux, ubuntu, sabayon with "radeon" driver but the same problem... blank screen. I think is not only from the driver but and some code should be installed.
