Another system failed under 20.04.1: A T480 that hadn't been used for a
while, set up dual boot Ubuntu 20.04 and Win 10. Ubuntu had updates
waiting including the 20.04.1 updates from several weeks ago. As soon as
that installed and the system was restarted, malfunctions began. The
system was docked (UltraDock) running lid closed with an external HDMI
display as primary and a Lenovo USB external keyboard. The dock also had
a Logitech USB dongle for the wireless Logitech mouse.

Immediately upon restarting, the system suspended as soon as the login
password was entered. In looking at the logs, it appears that the action
immediately preceeding the suspend was loading the Logitech module. This
now happens every startup unless the Logitech mouse is turned OFF during
startup.

The splash screen is turned off to prevent the spinning logo hang (done
on the first restart after the updates -- after resuming from suspend --
to prevent the hang); the initramfs error messages are on full display
with every start.

This system includes discrete nVidia graphics on an 8th gen Intel
chipset with Sierra Wireless. Ubuntu is using the proprietary nVidia
drivers, which were loaded prior to the 20.04.1 updates; those updates
did install the most recent nVidia driver. This system does NOT have
Dropbox loaded.

Posting this to provide another data point that I hope will help to pin
down this problem. FYI, this is now 3 of 3 Ubuntu LTS 20.04 systems here
that have been afflicted with the Ubuntu 20.04.1 bugs.

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 20.04's software updater just applied quite a few updates
  affecting grub and nvidia. The modules should show in the report just
  submitted. Also, updates to initramfs had just installed a few days
  ago. Kudos in that these updates fixed two login/startup issues: I'd
  been affected by the compression change for initramfs and had started
  getting the spinning ubuntu circle on the logon splash screen,
  apparently due to an nvidia driver conflict. I'd turned the splash
  screen to nosplash, and have now been able to set it back to splash.
  Both of those issues now appear to be fixed.

  BUT now when I start Ubuntu with the T570 laptop docked, lid closed,
  external display and keyboard via the dock: as soon as I enter the
  login password and press enter, the system goes into suspend. If I
  then press the dock power button again, the system will resume and
  proceed normally.

  It seems that the new startup modules don't realize that the machine
  is docked; and/or that it erroneously now "detects" the closed lid as
  a change in lid state during startup, triggering suspend. Prior to
  today's updates, this was not an issue.

  I would appreciate seeing this corrected. Thank you.
