Hello! I have several problems:
sometimes when I switch between the applications using panel, I got some flickering artifacts appear. After using waiting mode some applications freeze. Especially google chrome browser. After “waking up” from hibernation OS fully freezes and doesnt react to anything. Only mouse can move. Please tell what can be the reason of the problem. Should I install other videodrivers? Which ones?
Thanks in advance!

You have video-nvidia and video-nvidia-470 installed.
This might be the problem.
Sorry, couldn’t attach image.
I guess this is the correct command to show installed drivers:

there is something wrong with you (in my opinion)

I’ve just installed optimus-manager from official repository and it seems that now it’s better.
At least artifacts from app switching were gone. And it doesn’t fully stuck after hibernating.
I guess maybe I have to remove some of these packages:
linux61-headers, linux61-acpi, linux61-rt и linux61-nvidia
you need linux61-nvidia
.
All other not for Graphics - delete it

Should I remove video-linux driver?

Unfortunately after installing optimus-manager my laptop lost ability to connect extra display. Maybe it requires some more configuration. As one option I can switch to discreet videocard (With command like
optimus-manager --switch nvidia
but I guess it will be not very good for laptop’s battery work duration)
So I removed video-linux driver. Almost nothing changed. I installed optimus-manager again (and it removes my extra display).
I tried to switch to nvidea GPU, but no success.
optimus-manager --switch nvidia 5s
ERROR: a GPU setup was initiated but Xorg post-start hook did not run.

If your login manager is GDM, make sure to follow those instructions:
https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager#important--gnome-and-gdm-users
If your display manager is neither GDM, SDDM nor LightDM, or if you don't use one, read the wiki:
https://github.com/Askannz/optimus-manager/wiki/FAQ,-common-issues,-troubleshooting
Cannot execute command because of previous errors.
I removed video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime and installed video-nvidia-470xx.
After reboot I discovered, that with that driver my laptop display doesn’t show anything. Only extra monitor works. I guess laptop monitor uses Intel GPU. I also tried to combine it with video-linux, but nothing changed.
After trying different combinations of drivers I installed
video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-470xx-prime
And it seems that it solved the problem. At least I don’t have freezes and artifacts even after sleep or hibernation mode.
So now I have:
