The real cause of this issue is xvfb started to provide
display for
tests, switching to xvnc solves the issue. The same problem was
discovered for hibernate tests, even disabling workspace auto save job
through plugin_customization.ini didn't solve the issue and build stuck
anyway in Display.sleep() method forever.
