So i have 2 Hp Laptops both the same but one is a downgrade pavilion where mine is the top one. they are both about 6-7 years old so not new but they work. My laptop is a HP Pavlion, I7 with 8GB of ram running and a Nividia Geforce with Ubuntu 19.10 where as the other one is a HP Pavlion, duel core with 4GB of ram running Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS.
The reason i mention this is they both have the same issue so i dont think this has anything to do with what version of Ubuntu i have but what is happening is the screen will freeze, you can see everything in the background moving but you just cant click on anything. At first i can do Ctrl + Alt + T and get the terminal up and write but i just cant click anywhere else without restarting my laptop. Im starting to think a hardware issue.
Has anyone else come across this issue before?
ls -al ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
.sudo dmidecode -s bios-version
and then go to support.hp.com and check for a newer one.
