Only if you want to continue to trouble shoot this and try to isolate it.

So, GNOME then. GNOME defaults to Wayland.

Wayland needs recent nVidia drivers ($CURRENT and $CURRENT-1 I
believe) to work. I think switching GPUs does not currently work but I
do not own any machines with modern nVidia GPUs so I can't say.

So, if you have an nVidia GPU, and you want to use Wayland, then set
it as the primary GPU in your firmware _and_ install the appropriate
nVidia binary drivers, ideally from Ubuntu's own repos.

If you have nVidia but it's too old for this, then if you can, install
appropriate GPU drivers and use X.org.

If you want Wayland for some reason, set the Intel integrated GPU as
primary and disable switching. Or change desktop.
