Update: Tried on monday a fresh Ubuntu 20.10 and Nvidia 470.57.02
Same X11 restart/crash with "- Setting a mode on head 1 failed: Invalid surface parameters" (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to enter VT (mode initialization failed) and still no crash file from X11 The system is very stable like with Windows when not doing docking (multiple hibernates, suspends with 90% 128GB ram occupied, and leaving some steam games open) but useless for homeoffice<->office1<->office2 travel for all linux employees. Reliable Docking is the only blocker thing for migrating to Linux :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1935951 Title: [nvidia] HomeOffice & Un-/Docking: X11 crash on resume when docked to multi monitor Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: X11 crashes on resume and my current desktop is lost and the login manager appears. I posted a bugreported here https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1197 with configu details. But it seems to be nvidia, but may be a workaround is possible in Ubuntu? This bug prevents me to use Linux for daily docking /undocking cycles for HomeOffice (works fine with Windows).
