How to reproduce: 1. plug external screen 2. activate/configure monitor (either using GUI or xrandr) 3. set relative position of ext monitor to something else than the default (e.g. above or below) 4. move cursor from laptop screen to external screen 5. move cursor back from extrernal screen to laptop screen At this point a full system freeze occurs. Cannot switch to console, no kernel error (crashkernel does not activate), no trace in dmesg/Xorg.log etc. Even remote ssh sessions onto the computer freeze, so no extra information can be gathered this way. The lock-up does not occur if any of the steps above are omitted: - no issue if the external monitor is not activated - no issue if the relative position is not changed - no issue if the mouse cursor stays on the laptop screen where it was initially - no issue if the mouse cursor iis moved from the laptop screen to the external screen and stays there **Also the issue does not occur if the external monitor is already plugged before boot, and the resolution and position is only set once upon Xorg start-up**. In other words it is possible to use an external monitor as long as 1) it is plugged before boot 2) the Xorg conf contains explicit entries to set the resolution and position. The issue can be reproduced reliably on both a fresh 15.10 install, any stock Ubuntu kernel, and the mainline PPA kernels (up to and including the latest 4.6-rc2). Also reproduces reliably with both the base intel drivers shipped with 15.10 and those provided by Intel's linux-installer.
