Hi!
My Linux laptop running kernel v4.17 freezes intermittently when the laptop
lid is closed but external monitors are connected to 2 HDMI ports. I provided
details on the issue, any idea what could be causing it?
I ruled out many different subsystems by trial and error, finally I enabled
ftrace events on power subsystem and see that the freeze is precisely at the
same time as drm_mode_getconnector is called on these events and its the Xorg
process. I think since Xorg is busy on this drm_mode_getconnector ioctl, its
not able to perform its duties.

Let me know if you spot anything weird, and if you have any suggestions?
Just for documenting it, the issue seems very similar to what is reported inMy Linux laptop running kernel v4.17 freezes intermittently when the laptop

I am indeed using Cinammon as well. With the lid closed, the same 'modeset'
log messages appear and freeze the system every 30 seconds.
