    Found this: http://elementaryos.stackexchange.com/a/591/6119

    • Run sudo -i scratch-text-editor /etc/default/acpi-support

    • Find and change POST_VIDEO=true to POST_VIDEO=false

    • Find and change SAVE_VBE_STATE=true to SAVE_VBE_STATE=false

    • Restart your laptop, issue should be solved.
    Maybe it helps. In any case it seems to be a real bug affected are also Ubuntu/Xubuntu and other Distro versions.

    Already tried, doesn't work :/

    Update
    I've tried newer kernel version (4.6.7) and it works more stable now, but it still occurs.

    I also experience this but only for Lock (Super + L). My graphics card is nvidia geforce 820m and the driver installed is nvidia-340. i installed this driver from app center. is there a fix for the lock?

    Hey,
    also got the same issue. It's obviously problem with nvidia-340 drivers. My only solution at the moment is to uninstall them, but then you will get rid of the 3D acceleration.
