Public bug reported:

When I install ubuntu-desktop on servers with an AMI BMC, I find a
remote desktop running on the BMC's virtual KVM display hangs when I
transition to the lock screen. The screen either goes blank and fails to
wake up on keyboard/mouse input - or the lock screen appears but
freezes, leaving the clock display frozen in time.

Correlated with the issue are the following messages in /var/log/syslog,
which are emitted when I move the mouse cursor while the lock screen is
frozen:

A commonality of these systems is that they use the astfb driver.

I've found that this issue follows the kernel version. If I run a jammy
desktop with jammy's 5.15 kernel, this issue occurs. If I downgrade just
the kernel back to focal's 5.4, the issue vanishes.
