Public bug reported:
For some reason, since today GDM has ceased to work. No updates came
through as last time I installed any updates was a week ago.
Upon boot, gdm goes to a black screen with a cursor. This screen
flickers to show the underlying tty and on each flicker the cursor
position resets.
I can start my window manager (sway) without issue from the console
still and everything functions normally.
