Package: gdm3
Version: 3.18.0-2
For a few weeks now when I log in successfully with gdm3, I get a grey
screen with nothing on it.
Pressing the "enter" button gives me the "show password" drop list.
The only way to get out of this is by pressing the "Escape" button.
I doubt this is due to a change in gdm3 since it has not been updated
recently on testing.
I was able to reproduce this bug on at least 3 different computers, all
running NVIDIA proprietary drivers.
I'm not sure what infos you need to debug this, but please ask!
