Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem?

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.11 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

Kernel: 4.10.0-19-generic

I noticed the mistake from the installation.

Some days ago I used Linux Mint and it did not contain that error, I do not remember which kernel version it was but it was updated.

[Tereso Ramos (ramosgt)]

I can't test upstream kernel because it is for production use.

[Tereso Ramos (ramosgt)]

I installed the upstream kernel-4.10.11-041011-generic-, but it was not fixed

[Tereso Ramos (ramosgt)]

With kernel 4.11.0-041100rc7-generic I can't get login and I can see that nvidia driver is not in use

Found this screen blanking issue on fresh install of Ubuntu Budgie 17.04.

[paulpoco (pjb-telus)]

In one of the logs at the time of screen going blank and then right away going to full screen on lock screen I found this:

gnome-screensav
    Message Source ID 285 was not found when attempting to remove it.
    Audit Session 1
    Prioriy 4

[paulpoco (pjb-telus)]

sudo sh -c 'vbetool dpms off; read ans; vbetool dpms on'
Real mode call failed
