Public bug reported:
On a ThinkPad E465 with dual AMD graphics (both integrated AMD Radeon R6
and dedicated Radeon R5 graphics) running Xubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver,
when opening the lid, lightdm asks for my password, after successfully
unlocking the device, the screen goes black with the backlight on for a
second, then switches off entirely (nothing is visible at all,
regardless of whether there is light incident on the screen or not), but
Xfce still works, notifications still sound etc.
When closing the laptop lid again, causing it to go back in to suspend,
then opening the lid again, the screen switches back on, briefly (less
than a second) displays PCI-related messages on a tty before lightdm
appears, and I can continue to Xfce like normal. Switching to tty1
clears the screen and these lines don't appear in dmesg at all.
However, the system appears unstable. When the problem occurred for the
first time, Firefox froze, apt froze when executed from a terminal
window (though apps launched from the Xfce menu worked fine), both
requiring 'kill' in Task Manager.
Thus, I used Xfce to reboot the machine, but stop jobs ran what appeared
to be indefinitely for CUPS and PackageKit, presumably because they too
froze.
As long as the system didn't suspend during the uptime, the system works
like a charm and I've had no other issues or stability complaints.
