Public bug reported: Running Ubuntu 16.04 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X260 with Intel Skylake HD Graphics 520, connecting an external monitor to the DisplayPort connector causes the system to quickly hang. The system stops responding to network pings, cannot switch consoles, and needs a hard reboot.
The external monitor does work when using a text console, and does not always hang in the LightDM login screen, but starting up a desktop session will always hang. This originally happened using a ThinkPad dock, and I tested it further using an external DP monitor. This happens on 4.4.0-28-generic as well as mainline 4.6.3-040603-generic and 4.7.0-040700rc5-generic; they all hang in a similar fashion. I have attached a journalctl log from running 4.4.0-28-generic and connecting the DP monitor while in a text console, before switching to the graphical console and logging in. The system hangs after a series of: kernel: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2319 at /home/kernel/COD/linux/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c:3647 skl_update_other_pipe_wm+0x15d/0x170 [i915] 2016-06-29T12:54:52+0300 tehobari kernel: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 4418 at /home/kernel/COD/linux/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:13957 skl_max_scale.part.108+0x69/0x70 [i915] kernel: [drm:gen8_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe B FIFO underrun The first warnings come immediately when connecting, and others when switching consoles and logging in.
