Title: Black screen after system updates Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Kubuntu 17.10 amd64 After recent system updates on reboot I get a black screen after the login screen, no desktop. Various attempts to start plasma desktop/kde failed with messages such as: ksmserver closed unexpectedly display is not set or cannot connect to the x server The following packages had been updated to v 17.2.8: libgbm1 libegl1-mesa libwayland-egl1-mesa libglapi-mesa libgles2-mesa libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri libxatracker2 mesa-va-drivers mesa-vdpau-drivers I reinstalled the previous version of these drivers and everything was back to normal. I read elsewhere someone reporting a similar problem but that it had gone away after recent updates. So I reapplied the above system updates and again had no desktop after rebooting. I again reverted to the previous versions (17.2.2) and the desktop is now working again. My graphics card is AMD/ATI Radeon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1750990/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
