Thanks again. On errors.ubuntu.com I see one gnome-flashback crash from September 2nd but unfortunately the retrace failed so there is no useful stacktrace: https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/352bf78e- ceb9-11e9-ae81-fa163e983629
I see also two vino crashes in September. Maybe vino is the culprit? Have you tried disabling or uninstalling it? There is also an older gnome-flashback crash from August 27th and it also seems related to X11 — the error is BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes), happened when gnome-flashback tried to set mouse speed. I think the real problem is below the stack — in X11 server or in kernel. When that is fixed, gnome-flashback should stop crashing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1842425 Title: No GUI with Gnome Flashback or Classic after apt dist-upgrade; Ubuntu on Wayland OK Status in gnome-flashback package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-signed-hwe package in Ubuntu: New Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Did apt dist-upgrade . I usually use Gnome Flashback. Now rebooting with 5.0.0.27 or 5.0.25 and logging in at GUI screen only works for "Ubuntu on Wayland". Other attempts: (1) Flashback: login transitions to purple background screen and no mouse. hitting alt-ctrl-F1 leads to an unlock screen with a next button. entering pw and clicking NEXT leads to animated circle wait icon. alt-ctrl-f2 leads to a TTY2 text mode console login screen. Login and sudo shutdown now -r (2) Gnome Classic: login transitions to a blank screen with the LCD displaying a "No video" message. alt-ctrl-f1 and unlocking there also transitions to a blank screen with the LCD displaying a "No video" message. alt-ctrl-f3 then Login and sudo shutdown now -r. (3) Ubuntu: same as with Gnome Classic.
