RHEL 7.2 soft lockup due to NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-367.57: NVRM: Your system is not currently configured to drive a VGA console

Hi,

I am having soft lockup issue with Nvidia driver and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2. It happens when the system wakes up from sleep/black screen. The video card is Quadro M2000. I am using EFI boot.

From the following post, it seems like a EFI-related problem?

Is there an “official” solution to this issue?
