@Kai-Heng Feng and @Anmar Queja I have upgraded to Ubuntu 17.10 and used the suggested nouveau.modeset=0 kernel boot option.
It works perfectly. I can indeed see many improvement. Most and foremost Wayland is working as far as I can see! The only hiccup I had was with the laptop suspending right after the successful login, when the laptop lid was closed while being connected to the Dell Thunderbolt dock – TB16. In contrast to previous Ubuntu version there is no way of configuring the laptop lid behaviour by using the GUI (via Power configuration). Below setting made the trick. vim ~/etc/systemd/logind.conf --- HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore --- In the light of this I believe this addressed by upgrading to 17.10 and thus can be closed. @Marco Scavazzon I believe you should create a new bug and reference this bug in order to get kernel 4.13.0-16 ported to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. @All Ubuntu kernel develops A great thank you to you all of you for making Ubuntu 17.04 so nicely work with Wayland and with Dell XPS 15 (9560)!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697556 Title: Computer freezes after login - 4.10.0-22-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1697556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
