[Bug 1435584] [NEW] Randomly freezing display HP Zbook 15 G2 AMD FirePro M5100

 

Public bug reported:

Running  kernel on Ubuntu 14.04.2.

At random times, (especially when touching the touchpad after not
touching it for a period of time), the display goes black !

Using QHD display resolution : 3200x1800

More information about hardware can be found here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1434963

Otherwise 14.04.2 runs fine / perfectly on this brand-new machine.

It also seems to happen after the system had been successfully recovered
from suspending.

Also, it one time, just wanted to switch on to resume, and the whole
display went 'disco', meaning, it was flashing wildly, recovery
impossible...

Any help would be greatly appreciated, since HP claims they 'support' 14.04 on this Workstation.
