I think this pins down my problem: I am running Debian-AMD64, including a 
64bit kernel and in 64bit kernels there is no APM support. :-(

So I guess this is the reason, why it worked in Archlinux, because I was using 
a 32bit kernel there with APM support. And is it possible, that during the 
Grub "boot loader stage" APM also works?

I experimented with the acpi_sleep option, but it didn't help. Since not only 
my video doesn't come back from suspend, but also no keyboard, network etc., 
I seem to be having some other problem.

I guess I am in some kind of loser position now, having ACPI not really 
working and no APM in a 64 bit kernel I won't be able to suspend. :-(

But thanks to you, I now know the reason why it worked in Archlinux and 
doesn't work anymore.
