Running dell latitude E5450 with nVidea card and seeing this - both the error and sometimes when unlocking screen the monitor keeps flashing on and off every 5 seconds until you change the resolution and change it back. The best way to do this is CTRL+ALT+F6 then CTRL+ALT+F7
I am also seeing the issue where X is not showing the docked monitors (eDP) as active if I: suspend -> undock -> resume -> suspend dock -> resume apport is reporting crashes frequently (using the non free Nvidea driver so I assumed this was the issue). The bit of information I can add is that apparently Windows users are effected by the screen flashing also (in a company so everyone has the same laptop)! Dell released a BIOS update to fix the flashing, but it didn't help. Just wanted to add this as it may be a firmware issue. #uname -a Linux 4.2.0-18-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 6 18:25:50 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux #lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Host Bridge -OPI (rev 09) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics (rev 09) 00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Audio Controller (rev 09) 00:04.0 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Camarillo Device (rev 09) 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP USB xHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP MEI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (3) I218-LM (rev 03) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP PCI Express Root Port #1 (rev e3) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP PCI Express Root Port #4 (rev e3) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP PCI Express Root Port #5 (rev e3) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP USB EHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP LPC Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile SATA Controller [RAID mode] (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP SMBus Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 SD Host controller: O2 Micro, Inc.
