It was running on kernel 4.10.0.32 and has an rx 480. After the upgrade, I rebooted once and unlocking the screen took realy long (before it was about 2 seconds, after the reboot about 5 minutes). Everytime, in the syslog something like Aug 25 16:35:31 reichelt-desktop gnome-session[2506]: gnome-session-binary[2506]: GLib-GIO-CRITICAL: g_dbus_connection_call_internal: assertion 'object_path != NULL && g_variant_is_object_path (object_path)' failed Aug 25 16:35:31 reichelt-desktop gnome-session-binary[2506]: GLib-GIO-CRITICAL: g_dbus_connection_call_internal: assertion 'object_path != NULL && g_variant_is_object_path (object_path)' failed appeared. Afterwards, for about 5 minutes, messages like Aug 25 16:35:42 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.102310] Aug 25 16:35:42 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.102310] failed to send pre message 5d ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:42 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.516918] Aug 25 16:35:42 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.516918] failed to send message 5d ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:43 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.931521] Aug 25 16:35:43 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21890.931521] failed to send pre message 148 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:43 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21891.345961] Aug 25 16:35:43 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21891.345961] failed to send message 148 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:44 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21892.175456] Aug 25 16:35:44 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21892.175456] failed to send pre message 145 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:44 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21892.590110] Aug 25 16:35:44 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21892.590110] failed to send message 145 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:45 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21893.419029] Aug 25 16:35:45 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21893.419029] failed to send pre message 146 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:46 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21893.833804] Aug 25 16:35:46 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21893.833804] failed to send message 146 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:46 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21894.661492] Aug 25 16:35:46 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21894.661492] failed to send pre message 306 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:47 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.074453] Aug 25 16:35:47 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.074453] failed to send message 306 ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:47 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.487241] Aug 25 16:35:47 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.487241] failed to send pre message 5e ret is 0 Aug 25 16:35:48 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.899734] Aug 25 16:35:48 reichelt-desktop kernel: [21895.899734] failed to send message 5e ret is 0 appeared.
