Just an update: I can reproduce this problem with Ubuntu 20.04, stock Gnome and latest NVidia beta driver 470.42.01 as suggested by X11 maintainers.
Gnome doesn't crash, but just restarts the desktop. The var/crash folder is also empty, and EnterVT errors are printed in syslog I posted at NVIDIA the issue: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/linux-for-homeoffice-docking-undocking-produces-ee-nvidia-0-failed-to-enter-vt-mode-initialization-failed/183481/2 I observed, that when the monitors and dockingstations are powercycled, the sporadic desktop crash on resume ahppens almost every 2nd time. MIght be the monitors just need just more time the be ready for X11/nvidia?? ** Attachment added: "desktopcrash_after_resume.2_nvidia470_beta.zip" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-460/+bug/1935951/+attachment/5511468/+files/desktopcrash_after_resume.2_nvidia470_beta.zip -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1935951 Title: [nvidia] HomeOffice & Un-/Docking: X11 crash on resume when docked to multi monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-460/+bug/1935951/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
