[Bug 1489820] Re: kernel 3.19 and frozen screen

 

I'm experiencing the same issue. When using kernel 3.17 everything's
fine but with kernel 3.18 or 3.19 the screen goes black intermittently
but pretty often.

If I change the brightness of my screen I can see the black goes a bit
brighter if that makes sense. Sometimes I can press the sleep button and
it goes to sleep. However when it comes back it goes into the black
screen soon enough and most of the time the sleep button doesn't react
anymore.

One other thing I managed to nailed down is when I used a secondary
monitor instead of my laptop one, nothing goes wrong.

Hope this helps.

Francois

Title:
  kernel 3.19 and frozen screen

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
   ~ $ uname -a
  Linux user-Aspire-VN7-571G 3.19.0-25-generic #26~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 24 21:16:20 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

   $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela
  Release:	17.2

  I installed kernel 3.19 to solve the problems which are reported under
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1383184. At least I could solve this.

  Since that time it occurs from time to time, that the screen freezes
  no matter which application I am just running. The only way out is to
  press the power bottom and to restart the computer.
