I install it via USB

Also, dunno if it might tell something but each time I enter my session in Ubuntu it greets me with "System error"
tho it still works

do you have any output from: $ ls -lh /var/crash/
dawn
dawn
-rw-r----- 1 gdm whoopsie 327K feb 4 09:25 _usr_bin_Xwayland.121.crash
-rw-r----- 1 oscar whoopsie 63M feb 4 10:03 _usr_share_gitkraken_gitkraken.1000.crash
the gitkraken one is because I wanted to increase the "watchers"
and then I experienced this problem
