Hi all,
I have a RTX2060 connected through an eGPU via TB3 to my C940 Laptop. When I attach an external Monitor through Display Port the System instantly crashes (no response anymore) and I get a white screen with the following error: “Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can’t recover. Please contact a system administrator”. I can only force-shutdown the system via the power-button.
When the Monitor is connected during boot, everything works fine until the login-screen would display. At that point it crashes and displays the same error message
When I attach the Monitor through HDMI, everything works fine. It also works fine with Windows and it did work with Ubuntu 22.10. So I can rule out HW problems.
OS: Ubuntu 23.04, Kernel 6.2, Xorg, Standard Ubuntu-Gnome desktop
Nvidia Driver: 525.105.17 (remark: Issue also present with version 470 and 515)
GPU: RTX2060
eGPU: Lenovo Booststation.
Laptop: Lenovo C940
Monitor: Acer Predator XB273K GP
As the system crashes, I cannot run the nvidia-bugreport.
Would be great, if anyone can help here! Let me know, if I there is other data needed.
Thanks!
