I'm not sure what exactly I did with BIOS settings but perhaps it was
disabling UEFI.

That's simply ridiculous.

That's a bad polict. If that's the approach, Canonical should change the
way Ubuntu is "marketed", because it does not reflect reality.

Yeah, provided that you are a computer geek capable of such things as
keeping your bios up to date, making sure to disable UEFI, and the like.

Title:
  xorg started to systematically crash after every suspend/resume

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  - I suspended
  - I pressed a key to resume
  - the screen turned on and I was prompted for the password as usual
  - I entered the password

  => my previous session was lost, every application I had left open
  prior to suspend was closed, all unsaved data was lost and everything
  was as if I had just rebooted.

  Then I tried suspending and resuming again just for the sake of
  testing, and it happened again, exactly the same way.

  It now happens 100% of the times systematically.
  Now maybe (I hope) it will stop happening after a reboot, but for now, once it has started happening, it has become systematic.

  This is not the first time I observe it.
