Public bug reported: I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on a ThinkPad P72 with a Quadro P5200.
Whenever I have Discrete graphics enabled in the BIOS, or set the prime- select profile to NVIDIA, the display will freeze and the mouse pointer will drift for a few seconds. This makes the system nearly unusable. However, the issue can be fixed by simply attaching a new display and running xrandr --auto. This video illustrates the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOQxK_4xII0 I have tried with a newer kernel version and with older versions of the NVIDIA driver (390, 435). Nothing works. For this reason I believe the issue to probably reside in the kernel or X.
