Hello,
I would like to add few updates:

  1.  I have created a simple script that simplifies entering some commands 
blindly from a TTY: https://pastebin.com/r0wszSLJ
  2.  I have realized that rmmod and modprobe of nouveau can help, but it has 
to be done twice and there are some other dependencies (vtcon1 and X11):

sudo systemctl stop lightdm
echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
sudo rmmod nouveau
sudo modprobe nouveau
echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
sudo systemctl start lightdm
# Do it once more

Also, it has some other drawbacks than having to reboot X11. It requires me to 
restart the VMs in order to be able to interact with their GUI. (This looks 
like some X11 crash.)
  3.  I have updated kernel to 5.6.4-1.qubes. When I use Nvidia, there seem to 
be no change. But when I use Intel, it does not seem to freeze now. (At least 
not yet.) But I am not sure if it really helps. It works mostly well if I don't 
need HDMI, which is probably handled by NVIDIA. There are two issues with HDMI. 
First is blank screen after resume from sleep. The second one is that it shows 
just part of the picture - cursor and sometimes bakcground are shown, but 
windows are not shown.

I conclude that even if Intel can work well, it is the harder way, because HDMI 
seems to be connected through NVIDIA. So, using just NVIDIA is likely easier, 
because it is just a single card.
  4.  I also have seen Frédéric Pierret resolving issues with Nvidia by some 
kernel patches:

 . Maybe using some of those kernels could help. I can either compile them 
myself or download binary releases. But how to prove that it comes from a 
member of Qubes Team?

a. Compile from sources and verify the sources. The veritication is rather easy 
(well, except that some commit is not signed), but I am not sure about the 
compilation. I was able to get vmlinux file, but I don't feel like putting the 
file path in /boot and adjusting xen.cfg while keeping the initramfs...
b. Download the binaries. Cool, but how do I check the signature? Frédéric 
seems to use a different key, so I cannot verify it.
