Dieter Meyer, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better.
1) Is this something that started to happen after an update? If so,
which and when precisely?
2) Regarding the kernel you are using (4.13.0-37.42-generic 4.13.13) it
appears you are manually booting this or have it pinned. Could you
please update to a supported kernel (4.15.x) and advise to the results?
3) If you disable the nvidia card in your BIOS, does this provide a
WORKAROUND?
