Could you please check, from which version you updated, so we know which version did not exhibit this behaviour and which version does. See /var/log/dpkg.

Once you're logged in, run "systemd-inhibit --what=sleep /bin/sleep 3600" [1]. This should block any suspend requests for one hour. Or for a permanent change, you can edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf and set "HandleSuspendKey" and "HandleLidSwitch" to ignore. Could you describe your hardware in more detail. What type of computer, which graphics card and driver, monitor setup etc. For some reason, you seem to be getting acpi events which trigger the suspend request in logind. This might be a buggy ACPI implementation like in [1].
