We are going to release a new kernel soon, right now it is in the
proposed channel, Welcome to test with the new kernel:

edit the $rpi_rootfs/etc/apt/sources.list and add:
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports eoan-proposed main restricted
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports eoan-proposed universe
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports eoan-proposed multiverse

boot the rpi board, then run:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install linux-image-5.3.0-1013-raspi2
sudo reboot

Then you could do the test with the proposed kernel.

At least the 1013 kernel fixed these bugs compared with 1012 kernel:

Title:
  CONFIG_DRM_V3D is disabled for linux-raspi2 of eoan

Status in linux-raspi2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux-raspi2 source package in Eoan:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  We enabled DRM_VC4 in the linux-raspi2 of eoan, but disabled the
  DRM_V3D.

  In fact the DRM_V3D is crucial for graphical applications (such as
  ubuntu-desktop :) as it removes the graphical overhead from the cpu to
  the gpu, making the applications work much faster.

  Please refer to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-
  raspi2/+bug/1848703/comments/32

  
  [Impact]
  Users reported that we should enable the DRM_V3D, then the GPU will
  be fully used when running "ubuntu-desktop"

  [Fix]
  Enable the DRM_V3D, the v3d.ko will be built

  [Test Case]
  Users already tested it, it worked well.

  [Regression Risk]
  Low, I already did building test for arm64 and armhf, all passed.
  And uers already tested the kernel module, it worked as expected.
