I'm not sure what exactly I did with BIOS settings but perhaps it was disabling UEFI. > Regarding dual-booting, also strongly advised not to do it. That's simply ridiculous. > Regarding regressions, if the code changes in kernel/xorg stack require > a more precise BIOS implementation or was providing some BIOS hack > WORKAROUND, that being reverted is not considered a bug in the kernel/xorg That's a bad polict. If that's the approach, Canonical should change the way Ubuntu is "marketed", because it does not reflect reality.

Then I tried suspending and resuming again just for the sake of testing, and it happened again, exactly the same way. It now happens 100% of the times systematically. Now maybe (I hope) it will stop happening after a reboot, but for now, once it has started happening, it has become systematic. This is not the first time I observe it.
