System becomes unstable on resume

[Mike Wilson]

After I come back from suspend the system looks fine, then once launching the Unity dash the system becomes unstable. The graphics start to render incorrectly and eventually the system will crash.

Once this problem starts it can be stopped by switching to TTY1 and back to 7. I experience many of the following errors in dmesg every second until I swap TTY.

The machine has been tested with Ubuntu 16.04 and .10, running all of the nvidia 367, 370, and 375 drivers.

High! I face the same problem, it's well known bug in nvidia driver. Fix isn't yet released.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

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

[Mike Wilson (mwilson-e)]

Issue appears to be resolved with the nvidia 381 driver.

[Paul White (paulw2u)]

Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021.
Reporter says in comment #5 that issue has been fixed.
Sorry Mike, for not acknowledging your comment until now.
I'm closing this now as being fixed as there have been no further comments
for over five years now.
