Problem seems to be resolved after I downloaded and installed manually the Nvidia 440.64 drivers for my card (Quadro T2000) from the official Nvidia website (https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx).

I have chosen to use "discrete graphics" which means that I am using the Nvidia card. Until a recent update everything was working fine. After the automatic update and the upgrade from kernel 5.3.0-28 to 5.3.0-40 (and possibly an upgrade of the Nvidia drivers) the opearing system hands after I enter the login credentials. I have tried to get some output from the startup screen by removing the "quite splash" from the grub file but it does not give any error information. It just hangs. I am using Nouveau to login to the computer, but with Nouveau I the HDMI port is not working I can try to add more debugging information if one helps me to collect it I am using Ubuntu 18.04.4 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-40.32~18.04.1-generic 5.3.18 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-40-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.11 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/boot.log' CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Fri Mar 6 11:39:29 2020 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: bionic DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GpuHangFrequency: Once a week GpuHangReproducibility: I don't know GpuHangStarted: I don't know GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Device [8086:3e9b] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:2297] NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:1fb8] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:2297] InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-02-29 (5 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20200203.1) MachineType: LENOVO 20QQS1JE00 ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-5.3.0-40-generic root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root ro quiet splash nomodeset vt.handoff=1 SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display Title: Xorg freeze UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 11/28/2019 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: N2NET34W (1.19 ) dmi.board.asset.tag: Not Available dmi.board.name: 20QQS1JE00 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: SDK0J40697 WIN dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrN2NET34W(1.19):bd11/28/2019:svnLENOVO:pn20QQS1JE00:pvrThinkPadP53:rvnLENOVO:rn20QQS1JE00:rvrSDK0J40697WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: ThinkPad P53 dmi.product.name: 20QQS1JE00 dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_20QQ_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad P53 dmi.product.version: ThinkPad P53 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO version.compiz: compiz N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.99-1ubuntu1~18.04.2 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 19.2.8-0ubuntu0~18.04.3 version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 19.2.8-0ubuntu0~18.04.3 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core N/A version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev N/A version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati N/A version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel N/A version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau N/A To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-435/+bug/1866326/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
