Closing lid doesn't suspend despite setting in 16.04

[Eric]

Not sure this is the right place but after my upgrade to 16.04 my laptop no longer suspends when the lid is closed. The lap top is an HP Envy 17-3090NR. Not sure what else you'd like to know but I'm happy to help debug this.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Same here, Lenovo E530, fresh install (after the upgrade left me with a blank screen upon reboot :-( But that's something different).

Message in the log, when I close the lid:

Apr 23 19:07:53 e530 kernel: [ 5617.955727] i915 0000:00:02.0: BAR 6: [??? 0x00000000 flags 0x2] has bogus alignment

Nothing else....

@mkubik: what log is that in? I'm not seeing it in mine.

in the syslog as well as dmesg.

One more addition: using "sudo pm-suspend" from the command line works, but that's only a lame workaround...

This is marked as dup of bug #1574120, however, I do not see anyone reporting the

kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: BAR 6: [??? 0x00000000 flags 0x2] has bogus alignment

message that I see. Running a Thinkpad E530.

@MatthiasK, neither is the reporter of the bug you are commenting on, you should probably report a new bug against the kernel (using the "ubuntu-bug linux" command)
