I chatted with tjaalton in irc. He suggested trying mainline kernel. I pulled http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.7-rc6-yakkety/ now running 4.7.0-040700rc6-generic with $ dpkg-query --show xserver-common xserver-xorg-core xserver-common 2:1.18.4-1ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-core 2:1.18.4-1ubuntu1
and the problem does not appear to be present. I can't run the mainline kernels due to need of zfs and other ubuntu sauce, but it does seem fixed there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604819 Title: screen goes completely black during usage then comes back To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1604819/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
