fblevel 15 is far too high. Copy /etc/power/pwrctl to
/etc/power/pwrctl-local, then remove every action in -local (just keep
the structure of the file) and insert your commands as you
wish. -local is called with the same arguments than /etc/power/pwrctl,
at the end of it.

If you just want to do what you say, just grab the event (first
argument I think) which is either sleep or wakeup (or some others but
you are not interested in them).

BTW, with latest DRI (or kernel), you do not need to restore the
display.
