Public bug reported: Asus Zenbook Flip S (UX-370UAR). Intel Core i7-8550U CPU). The X freezes and doesnt even allow to start a console session.
Only happening on Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04. Does not happen in the same computer under Ubuntu 16.04 or Windows 10. Can be replicated easily. Every time I plug/unplug the power USB-C or the USB-c hub. Mostly, on any interaction with the USB-c or I/O ports. If I plug/unplug the USB-c without X in a console session (CTRL+ALT+F3) I get the following: BUG: kernel NULL point dereference, address: 0000000000000080 ... Workqueue: events ucsi_connector_change [typec_usci] RIP: 0010:ucsi_displayport_remove_partner+0xe/0x30 [typec_usci] ...
