Update: this is still acting up, even after the kernel update and Intel microcode updates of Nov 11 and Nov 12 respectively. Given those updates, I tested to see whether this bug is still there. Unfortunately, it is.
This is a ThinkPad T570, docked, using external HDMI display (via the dock) as primary. Also external Lenovo keyboard and mouse, obviously. By simply re-selecting the proprietary nVidia driver for the discrete graphics, the system goes into suspend as soon as the login password is entered. These drivers worked just fine until the Ubuntu update issues in September. I tried 2 different versions of the nVidia driver; both continue to cause this bug as has been the case since I opened this bug report. I have also seen this bug triggered by automatic loading of the Dropbox app (which I am keeping turned off until this is fixed); by a Logitech USB wireless mouse (on a T480 configuration); and after a few occurrences even by just the loading of the gnome shell. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897185 Title: Laptop docked with lid closed, goes to sleep immediately on login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1897185/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
