@Vedran: I would try installing the dkms package instead of the pre- built nvidia modules. Switch to nouveau in driver manager, or purge out your nvidia driver packages.
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-580-open nvidia-dkms-580-open (omit the "-open" from the package names if using an Nvidia Maxwell or Pascal GPU) If you use SecureBoot, you do need to sign the nvidia modules once (most systems use SecureBoot unless you disable it in BIOS/EFI): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UEFI/SecureBoot#How_can_I_do_non-automated_signing_of_drivers.3F Nvidia package will run kmodsign automatically. You don't need to worry about that part.
