I recently changed from Cinnamon to Xfce and was able to make everything work as I wanted, there are some annoying quirks but nothing you are not able to go around.
But this one is showing itself a challenge, apparently it's a bug from 2013?!
The issue is just that, if I (for instance) close the lid and the computer gets suspended, when I open the lid I'm able to type my login, but than the screen gets black and I need to do something to bring it back up.
It pops here and there true the years, I tried the suggestions, like disabling the compositor and avoid locking the session on sleep, but it made no difference and now I have to unlock the session twice before being able to login.
The third suggestion to disable the Intel GPU is not really an option since using just the Nvidia one in this machine drains the battery REALLY fast.
Would anybody like to help me diagnose this thing?
I'm on a Dell laptop with hybrid GPU (intel/Nvidia), Cinnamon worked perfectly every time.
I also use a secondary monitor, the configuration breaks some times when coming form suspend (displays get mirrored), but it seams unrelated.
