Public bug reported:
I am using Ubuntu 16.04.2 with kernel version 4.10.8 on an original
MacBook Air. No matter how I try to suspend, the screen stays black when
I try to wake my computer again. I know that it is on because I hear
sounds if I tap the volume buttons and I am able to connect over ssh,
but the screen stays black.
I have tried switching TTYs et.c. but the screen stays black. The Apple
logo on the lid isn't lit either. I don't know if this is a bug or just
lack of support but I find it really sad because my computer gets way
faster when I boot with the 'nomodeset' option.
Another problem I have with 'nomodeset' is that I am unable to control
screen brightness. I don't know if this is related or not, but I guess
it is.
