[Bug 1575651] Re: X stops responding to input on power saving mode

 

Muriel, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from kernel 4.4
to 4.6-rc6 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed
immediately by the first good one. Once this good commit has been
identified, it may be reviewed for backporting. Could you please do this
following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F
?

Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit
bisecting.

After the fix commit (not kernel version) has been identified, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  X stops responding to input on power saving mode

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Once my session has been locked and the screen off, Xserver stops responding to input ( I can still move the cursor). I can re-activate it by typing in a tty "xset dpms force on".
  If I just lock the screen all works fine.
  If I just turn off the monitor (xset dpms force off) all works fine.

  The same system (kubuntu 16.04 64bit) on different hardware (nvidia)
  has no problem.

  Symptoms:
  After waking the screen from power saving/screensaver, the primary display wakes but X stops responding to input (the mouse cursor can still move, but clicking has no effect).
  No errors in dmesg

  Frequency/conditions:
  Occurs almost every time the screen enters power saving + locked (possibly DPMS issue?)

  The issue does NOT occur when running this kernel:
  - linux-image-4.6.0-996-generic (4.6.0-996.201604262201)
  - linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc6-generic_4.6.0-040600rc6
