Should I write this option into my grub launch file?
What am i doing with this?
The +nomodeset does not seem to be necessary (I tired with and w/o and both times it was just fine!) What do I do with the +nomodeset?
My kid is happy as hell. He says thanks you all.

iommu=pt
to the /etc/default/grub file.Look for the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
and make it
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash iommu=pt"
Save the file and run: sudo update-grub
The above used method DRI_PRIME=1 programtorun is universal. You can run any kind of program on the dedicated GPU if needed.
I also recommend using the Kisak PPA link for better performance, although their support is preliminary for 20.04 so you should wait for it to become more mature.
As far as I can tell, the
pt
switch is for passthrough regarding virtualization. I think currently this is more like a bug with problematic behavior that is corrected with this. Shouldn't really affect other things.Congrats to you and The_Aquabat. :D

I made the changes permanent and the system is stable now. Will hook onto the Kisak PPA when I update to 20.04.
Many thanks for your patience and support.
