For me updating to the 4.8 kernel fixed this issue but gave me another suspend related issue which I reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-hwe/+bug/1699436
I eventually gave up on it and switched to using hibernate. sudo pm-hibernate or sudo pm-suspend-hybrid If these work for you there are instructions online for removing suspend from the GUI menu and adding hibernate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573959 Title: On-screen text disappears after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-xenial/+bug/1573959/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
