#1841: white screen of death (WSOD) after resume

Because there's no bug-report describing exactly this problem I'm opening
a new one:
After suspending and resuming the screen is all white. The phone ist still
working, you can ssh to it and everything. Just the screen stays white.
The screen will stay white forever, no matter how long you wait it changes
nothing. The correct screen never comes back again. You have to shutdown
by pressing the startbutton for a time or reboot (via ssh) to use your
phone again.
This happens with every OS I tested!
This is imo a high critical bug and is preventing the daily usage of the
Neo Freerunner because of decreased battery-lifetime without being able to
resume. This bug is widly known on the mailinglist and irc for several
weeks but it seems no progress has been made into fixing it.
While other bugs like the 3G-Sim bug make the phone unusable for a certain
group of users this bug makes it unusable for everyone as daily phone.
Tested OSs by me:
* 2008.8
* FSO2
* Qtopia
* Debian
How to reproduce:
* suspend Neo Freerunner for more than 10-20min, try to resume after that
Interesting behavior:
* The screen still reacts on some things. e.g. under debian it gets
darkened after a few seconds of inactivity by the screenlocker and it gets
brigth (white) again when you touch it.
