Sorry, I still can't reproduce this bug. I am using Nvidia 390.116 on
disco with nvidia-drm.modeset=1. Actually, that combination instead just
makes Xorg crash for me (bug 1822616).

If I apply the workaround for bug 1822616 and keep drm.modeset=1, I can
log into Xorg sessions but experience no hangs at all. So there's
something about our machines that is different.

I have some theories:

  1. The problem might be unique to PRIME, since you are using Intel and
Nvidia GPUs simultaneously. I am only using Nvidia (otherwise my machine
can't start up).

  2. The problem might be unique to your newer GPU. I don't have
anything like a 1050 that fits in my desktop.

  3. Maybe you are hitting bug 1823516 (you should be). And for some
reason it causes freezes on your machine, but not mine. I would expect
bug 1823516 to overwhelm many machines :(

Title:
  [nvidia] Shell hangs up at random times when using nvidia-
  drm.modeset=1

Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Mutter is hanging for multiple seconds (5 or so) at random times, especially 
when your user session starts and you open new applications from the launcher:
  - the screen freeze (apps & Shell) completely
  - you have a second cursor that you can move and refresh during that period

  It seems that disabling drm nvidia support prevent the issue from
  happening so far. More update if it's not the case anymore.
