I can confirm that this bug also affects Linux Mint 18, which is based
on the 16.04 packages. I'm running it on a ThinkPad T420, which uses the
NVS4200M graphics chipset. It's set up as an Optimus graphics card, but
I have disabled Optimus in the BIOS and forced the use of the dedicated
GPU.
I'm using the same build of nouveau:
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau:
Installed: 1:1.0.12-1build2
Candidate: 1:1.0.12-1build2
Version table:
*** 1:1.0.12-1build2 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
I can also confirm that switching to nvidia-361 allows the laptop to
suspend on lid close for me.
Using nouveau with Linux Mint 17.3 also caused this issue for me, though
I don't have the details of that install on-hand. I do still have the
drive on which it is installed if I need to get info on that.
I'm happy to provide any additional information.
