OK, I have just found that this has nothing to do with suspend-resume. 
The same problem with keyboard happens right after 10 switch-to-text-
console and back cycles (Ctrl-Alt-F2 and then Alt-F1: repeat 10 
times).

Is there anything to check in order to find the reason? How can I 
check keyboard mapping and other keyboard settings by something other 
than xmodmap?
