Interesting - another Thinkpad X240 _wasn't_ fixed by today's update, but when I checked the configuration it also had sddm installed (thought it wasn't using it as the default login display manager). Removing sddm, which still allows the kubuntu desktop package to remain, gives a functioning syste

Same deal with a Thinkpad X201 - this also now boots to the lightdm login screen after the latest updates but it "freezes" at this point. The cursor disappears when it is moved and the only thing that resurrects the laptop after this is the power button. Again: upstart+lightdm systemd+gdm are bo

I can confirm that it is now a "hard freeze" with systemd+lightdm when you exit to console after getting kicked into low graphics mode on startup with several Lenovo Thinkpads (X201, X300, X240). Workarounds on affected machines: - upstart + lightdm - systemd + gdm -- You received this bug not
