I have a Lenovo P50 laptop with the following specs:
CPU: i7
Ram: 32GB
Video: NVIDIA Quadro M1000M
SSD0: 1TB
SSD1: 512MB
SSD2: 512MB
I have tried the following Ubuntu versions:
14.04.6-desktop-amd64
18.04.5-''
20.04.1-''
I have closely followed the instructions found on the Lenovo site found here
My problem is the same on every installation. When I launch Firefox or Opera, they both freeze and or crash. Sometimes, I can get Firefox to work for a little while and Opera usually works for about 5-10 minutes before crashing. I am entirely new to Linux and I don't have the slightest clue on where to begin. I have a hunch that I'm having a problem with the NVIDIA but I don't really know. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: I am not using any add-ons and I have turned off hardware acceleration.
Edit: I updated the BIOS but still experience the issue.
