The problem continues after several TTY update/upgrades of packages.  I
tried to run the "apport-collect 1760261" command, but, due the issue
with no GUI the browser can't open to "confirm" that I am sending the
data . . . and clearly the data has not been added to the bug report.  I
think in the past I've tried to log in via another operating system, as
I am now using to type this post, but if memory serves the browser has
to open in the system that we are reporting the bug from??

As per the bot email I will change the status to "confirmed" even though
I am the OP . . . .  Earlier today I downloaded a fresh daily, so at
some point I will be wiping the system install and trying another one .
. . if I am the only reporter of this problem then perhaps there might
not be a reason to keep this problem install around for "analysis"??  I
have other options so it's not a problem to let it stay "wrong" for a
few days . . . .

Title:
  log in to GUI in U-MATE daily 18.04 fails

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Tried two installs on a daily of U-MATE 18.04 burned to DVD, and each
  time the install seemed to go well, no errors reported, no crash
  reports filed . . . on reboot, grub loads and the MATE log in window
  opens, typing the password brings a black screen for a few seconds,
  and then back to the log in window.

  Tried to install another DE to test whether that would work and that
  also failed.  Ran "dpkg" in the recovery system . . . found some
  updates but couldn't seem to download them; back into TTY and ran
  update/upgrade . . . showed 75 packages, which it installed . . .
  didn't fix the failure to log in problem.  Did an "ls -l
  /home/username" . . . and it showed the /home contents of the
  directory as being there, but the system is not logging into the GUI.
