> Bug description:
> I have installed Ubuntu 14.04 on a Acer Aspire One 722. Everything
> works fine on the laptop by itself. But if I connect the laptop to an
> external monitor (a HDTV in this instance) via a HDMI cable, the
> display on the laptop screen and on the external monitor work fine:
>
> 1) until I close the screen of the laptop while the laptp is still
> on, let it go to sleep, and then open the screen and restart. At that
> point the laptop and external montor screens are black with some
> garbled characters. There is no way to recover the laptop but shut it
> down and perform a cold boot.
>
> 2) and continue to do so if I use the suspend command (from the drop
> down menu from the top right corner of the screen). The laptop and the
> external monitor go dark when the computer suspends. Upon waking both
> the laptop screen and the external monitor work fine. Needless to say
> closing the lid after using the suspend command makes no difference.
>
> Any clues on what could be happening when I close the lid of the
> laptop to suspend the laptop?
