I'm running vanilla 4.9.15 at the moment and have not seen the problem
since a month or so. At least one time I started also the mentioned debian
kernel and did not see the problem in a short time. If you like,
I can start the debian kernel and report back in a week or so.
I've had some black screen events (last yesterday) on the internal
screen connected to the intel graphics chipset, but forgot to try
a lspci so I don't know if it's related (doubt it):
$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1600x900 --primary
xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
/var/log/Xorg.0.log:
[ 62721.387] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1600x900@60.0 on LVDS1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
[ 62721.387] (EE) intel(0): failed to set mode: Invalid argument [22]
Please feel free to close (or renice) this bug#.
Thanks,
greetings
