Bug description

Hardware: ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 5, RTX 3080Ti, MUX Discrete Graphics Mode (This is the BIOS setting where the dGPU is being exclusively used at the hardware level, and is not PRIME performance mode.)

Issue: Ever since I updated my system 2 weeks ago, I've twice had this really weird bug with the NVIDIA drivers where when I would wake my laptop, the desktop would be wholly unresponsive, except for my cursor and the NVIDIA settings app. This persists even after rebooting my system, to where the only way I can fix this was to launch the terminal via ctrl+alt+t, where I can uninstall then reinstall the NVIDIA drivers, where my desktop would be working perfectly fine afterwards. I also just noticed if I opened driver-manager via the terminal, then used it to install the nouveau drivers or a different NVIDIA driver, my setup would just work again for no explicable reason.

Steps to reproduce

1. Suspend laptop for at least 4 hours.
2. Wake laptop.
3. Attach laptop to external monitor or dock that has a monitor plugged in.

Expected behavior

Cinnamon is completely unresponsive except for the cursor and NVIDIA settings app. The only way to interface with the system is by bringing up the terminal via keyboard shortcut.

Additional information

• These bugs also seem to happen most often after I plug into an external monitor, though the issues still occur after I unplug and plug back in.
• Related to the detail above, since I can't change the resolution of internal monitor normally when on BIOS "Discrete Graphics" mode, I would have to change it in the NVIDIA settings app after every time I plug into my external monitor. That being said, the desktop would still have these bugs most of the time even if I didn't do that.
• So far whenever I reboot after I reinstall the NVIDIA drivers, I would have to enable then disable the NVIDIA's sleep systemd service for suspend to work properly.
• I usually have nvidia-suspend and nvidia-hibernate disabled, but the issues still occur when I have them enabled.

I'm gonna try the nvidia 570.86.16 driver from the graphics ppa to see if that fixes the issue.

This isn't a cinnamon issue

So you going to try the beta driver from some random PPA to address the issue, maybe read this first

Also do you need the 6.11 kernel?, suspend issues with the newer kernels is a known issue with affects multiple distro's

I need this issued to be reopened, because the same issues just happened to me despite having timeshifted back to kernel 6.8 and driver 550. At this point I think the root cause is a bug with Cinnamon, because I've never had this issue with any other DE or distro. Except this time, Cinnamon was partially response until I started opening multiple tabs.

Post some logs that actually show the issue. eg: 'full backtrace' or logs 'messages' and Xorg.0.log (look in /var/log) and .xsession-errors (in ~/ ).
If you can't provide these, there is no point in reopening this issue.

Xorg.0.log

I just tried using the iGPU and Nouveau, and the issue still occurred. This is the log I have after I disconnected my external monitor, otherwise mouse inputs besides movement wouldn't work.

There are no errors related to your issue in that log.

Then what's causing these issues with my monitors? Should I reinstall my OS then?
