Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) with NVIDIA card 1920x1080 resolution Rstudio 1.4.1106 Crashing

Hi all,

I recently got at work a new laptop and it has a Q620 nvidia card. I have currently installed the nvidia-driver-460. The crash log is as follows:

[1]    113066 segmentation fault (core dumped)  rstudio

Strangely enough when I first started up rstudio I had no issues and it ran but now even after a few restarts and purges it always crashes with the above log. It does not even create an outline or white screen and just crashes.

I have tried various suggestions as disabling GPU acceleration, tried switching between intel and nvidia using prime-select, running at a lower resolution (I am running at 1920x1080 which is not highres).

I have another laptop running Ubuntu 20 with a 4k screen and that one was crashing but setting export RSTUDIO_CHROMIUM_ARGUMENTS="--disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox" fixed that issue.

I have been trying to get this working for a while and really require it for work and was hoping if someone has some additional things to try that I have not attempted yet.

I know that technically Ubuntu 20 is not officially supported but any help is appreciated. I believe it is related to nvidia driver not playing nicely so if there are others with latest nvidia driver on Ubuntu experiencing similar issues that would be useful to know.

After trying almost everything in the end downgrading the nvidia-drivers from 460 to 430 fixed the issue.
