I don't know how clear it was before, but it's the same for me -- it happens when I connect or disconnect a monitor. It's a TV screen, and doesn't turn off automatically, so I make it turn on and off (using an RS232-based protocol over a separate cable). When turned off, the TV appears as disconnected from the computer, the desktop layout changes, etc.
The problem happens whether or not I have another, normal monitor connected. One difference is that it won't actually shut down if I issue the shutdown command over SSH (or press the power button), it starts the shutdown process but then hangs. This should be a pretty normal use case for laptops, so I'm surprised that not more people see it. Maybe it appears on desktop GPUs only, or that it resets when the computer is suspended (as would often happen after disconnecting a monitor laptops). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1887294 Title: [nvidia] Display freeze and kernel crash on GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-450 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The display is completely frozen, and no signal is output to the monitors. There is also no signal when switching to a console (Ctr- Alt-F1). I have normal access via SSH. It happens about once in 14 days. Only happens when turning the display off or on (about once in 15 screen power cycles). nvidia-smi still works (via SSH; without any options) DISPLAY=:1 xset dpms force on hangs indefinitely.
