I am using Ubuntu 20.04 on my laptop attached with a Dell monitor. My Nvidia driver version is 465.27 with a GeForce 3070 card. My external monitor becomes extremely slow when I close the laptop lid.
I read several posts:
Ubuntu 20.04, computer keeps shutting down when I close the lid, I've already checked logind.conf, settings are set to suspend
20.04 on external monitor (2560x1600) extremely slow
Keep Ubuntu Server running on a laptop with the lid closed?
Ubuntu graphics performance slow with external monitor AND notebook lid closed
And, I tried all the solutions but still not working. When I close the laptop lid, the external monitor still becomes very slow.
