Title:
gnome-shell crashed in standard_pict_format_for_depth()
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have a fleet of Dell T7500's, a few Dell 3620's, a Skull Canyon, and
a Hades Canyon, and a few other odds and ends, running a mix of ubuntu
16.04 and 17.10.
On one of the T7500 ubuntu 17.10 boxes (nvidia 340 package, Quadro K5000
card),
I did sudo "do-release-upgrade -d". Went fine, but on reboot, the desktop
would
come up for about ten seconds, then the system would shut down.
Did
systemctl set-default multi-user.target
then removed all traces of the proprietary driver with
sudo apt remove --purge nvidia-340 nvidia-opencl-icd-340 nvidia-settings
nvidia-384 nvidia-opencl-icd-384 nvidia-prime libcuda1-340
and rebooted. Logging in to the console and running 'startx' reproduces the
problem reliably, and does not shut down the system.
Installing lwm, and a .xinitrc that started an xterm, let startx succeed, and
the system was stable running firefox, so it's not an obvious graphics
problem.
