For Saucy, I've been using the 319 driver from Ubuntu -
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-319. In my
tests with 14.04, I kept the Nouveau driver installed; the same is true
for my tests with 12.04.2, which I used the Nouveau driver for. The bug
is reproducible if I use
Chris Plummer, thank you for performing the requested test. Just to
confirm, when you initially reported this bug with Saucy, were you using
the drivers from a Ubuntu repository as noted here
Hey Chris,
I installed the 01-06-2014 nightly build alongside my ubuntu 13.10 (the
live DVD operation just gave me a blank screen) - the issue still occurs
and is easily reproducible. Please advise on any other steps you wish
me to take to test this.

Hey Chris,
Thanks for letting me know! I had upgraded the BIOS a while back, but
forgot to check for updates after. I've installed the new BIOS using
wine and the DELL exe file, as you can see:
cplummer@cplummer-dl:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version sudo dmidecode -s
bios-release-date
A16
Sorry, I should be more clear - after the BIOS update, the issue still
occurs, both on 13.10 and the nightly 14.04 that I've installed
alongside it. My detailed 'what happened' description is how I verified
that it still happens after the BIOS update.
Thanks,
Chris

Chris Plummer, thank you for updating your BIOS. Could you please boot
with the irqpoll kernel parameter following

Just tried it on the nightly build and the problem still happens - I'm
not sure if it was like this before, but if I try to reproduce now, it
happens about 6 times out of 8. A couple of times it worked fine, but
never twice in a row. Usually, the screen goes black and then the unlock
password
When I removed the 'irqpoll' option, it still occurred, but a lot less
frequently - it seemed like it was almost 1 out of 2 times it would
happen. I actualy did have a streak of 5 or 6 times that I locked the
screen and it worked fine. I got the 'one screen is still unlocked'
problem a couple of

Chris Plummer, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
