Ubuntu 18.04 (mint 19)
Cinnamon
Running Nvida 390 on Thinkpad W541
Same issue. Interestingly it works while being docked and connected to multiple monitors via dock. Could find a way to make it worked undocked yet. Tried all PPA drivers, alternative displaymanagers(slim, gdm) and what not.
I saw somewhere else i believe that you can comment out:
Option "PrimaryGPU" "Yes"
in
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-nvidia-prime.conf
to make it work.
Well it does show the login screen afterwards but cinnamon is contantly crashing and everything being super slow. But that might be a hint to the right direction.
