David, by any chance, are you running VMware Workstation when these problems happen?
My computer has similar symptoms, and when I ssh in, VMware Workstation seems to be in an odd state. I can't suspend my VMs from the command line (in preparation for a reboot of the host). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1658185 Title: nouveau occasionally won't come back from DPMS suspend/off To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1658185/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
