Comment 55 for bug 1530405

Dell Inspiron 15 (2016) model with Nvidia gtx960m. I am on 16.10, kernel version 4.8.0-44-generic.

nouvau driver:
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Version: 1:1.0.14+git1703080733.b71de8~gd~y

I also encounter this problem.

at the grub, I can at least log in with full graphics by adding

nouveau.modeset=0

then, computer will behave normally... until I left idle for too long and laptop went to some sort of suspension, then, the kernel crashes.

It is like this since past couple kernel updates.
