Sorry for being grumpy, but something has be done with kernel quality assurance. 4.4 kernel apparently has multiple issues---in my case I have troubles on both 16.04 & 14.04 Ubuntus. They are: 1. blank virtual consoles after some time on 14.04.5@Asus Zenbook UX301 CA 2. Random Xorg lockups on 16.04.1@Lenovo thinkpad x220. Interestingly, the laptop is not completely frozen---after pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 I'm able to get to tty1, but after 30-40s. But going back to X results in still unresponsive graphics, so the only thing I can do is to issue a "shutdown -r now" command from the console... Kernel is complaining in dmesg about 'lost vblank'.
All these things, I believe, are due to multiple bugs in 4.4 kernel, presumably in intel video driver and/or a DRM subsystem---seems like it's badly broken in 4.4. Ubuntu kernel team should really consider to drop 4.4 support and move on to the next major kernel release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1566302 Title: Ubuntu 16.04: Suspend freezes the system after upgrade to linux image 4.4.0-16 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: I'm using ubuntu 16.04 on a XPS 15 9550. Suspend/resume worked flawlessly with linux image 4.4.0-15, and after standard upgrade yesterday (5/04/2016) which installed image 4.4.0-16, the system freezes when attempting a suspend. I get no response from the system (nor keyboard, nor screen, nor touchpad), but it gets very hot, so that it must be running something. Booting with 4.4.0-15 makes the suspend to work perfectly.
