The laptop works great with minimal issues. But when I close the lid to suspend the system and reopen it again, it crashes by logging me in and out repeatedly while flickering the black screen. Restarting the laptop solves the issue, but it's unreasonable to go on without being able to close the lid.

It was a hardware issue. My laptop is Razor Blade. I found this link about my laptop's common issues with ubuntu. The solution was:

  1. Edit the default grub config:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
  1. Add button.lid_init_state=open to the end of the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT option, like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash button.lid_init_state=open"
  1. Make changes permanent:
sudo update-grub

Then restart.

Other things I've tried:
