Title:
  [radeon] GDM3 fails to load without nomodeset

Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Both with the livecd (usb drive) and the installed version, I must boot with 
the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter at GRUB; otherwise GDM3 will not boot (the 
screen will keep on flashing in semi-textual mode, with a white mouse arrow 
stuck).
  This, however, prevents me from using the 'radeon' video driver, dropping me 
to a very basic 1024x768 vesa mode.

  The bug did NOT occur on Ubuntu 12.04, so it is a regression.
  Also, the bug does NOT occur on XUbuntu/XFCE 18.04, so it is a GDM3-Gnome 
related thing.

  Thanks,
  MZ
