[Bug 1597267] Re: ThinkPad X260 connecting external DisplayPort hangs system

 

And no upgrades or prior working versions, this is a fresh Ubuntu 16.04
install on a newly purchased X260 laptop.

** Description changed:

  Running Ubuntu 16.04 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X260 with Intel Skylake HD
  Graphics 520, connecting an external monitor to the DisplayPort
  connector causes the system to quickly hang. The system stops responding
  to network pings, cannot switch consoles, and needs a hard reboot.
  
  The external monitor does work when using a text console, and does not
  always hang in the LightDM login screen, but starting up a desktop
  session will always hang.
  
  This originally happened using a ThinkPad dock, and I tested it further
  using an external DP monitor. This happens on 4.4.0-28-generic as well
  as mainline 4.6.3-040603-generic and 4.7.0-040700rc5-generic; they all
  hang in a similar fashion.
  
- I have attached a journalctl log from running 4.4.0-28-generic and
- connecting the DP monitor while in a text console, before switching to
- the graphical console and logging in. The system hangs after a series

Title:
  ThinkPad X260 connecting external DisplayPort hangs system
