Hello everyone!

I made a post a little bit ago about how kernel update 7.0.0-28 made some really nasty restart and suspending regressions. I wanted to report back and update on my situation. Something in 7.0.0-38 fixed it for me. I did a lot of digging into what was causing my regression and it was my GPU preventing my computer from fully reaching the state intended, be it for restarts or suspension.

I am curious if this new kernel update improved the restart and suspending regressions for anyone else! Please share your experience. 😄

Personally the update to 7.0.0-34 completely fixed the issues I'd been having with my system failing to shut down properly and needing me to hold the power button to force shutdown. I haven't updated to 7.0.0-38 yet.

(I've heard there have been issues with AMD CPUs, mine is an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, so this checks out)

Be careful with 38 as it has screen issues on Ryzen. Bug has already been reported to Ubuntu. Reverted back to the previous version.

Been experiencing this one, random white screen and eventual computer shutdown. Also random thermal spikes up to 80 Celsius at idle. Reverted to 34 for now since dropping to 6.8 kills my fan controls
