The problem always happens when I try to use the nvidia graphics card using the command prime-select nvidia. When using prime-select intel it works fine.
The baffling part is that I dual boot 2 Ubuntu installs... And the other one works fine. I can help try and figure out what seems to be wrong, I just don't know which files to diff.
