Public bug reported:
I don't what changed but today, my Artful laptop refuses to start a
graphical session. The last update seems entirely unrelated:
# /var/log/apt/history.log
Start-Date: 2018-03-06 15:50:35
Commandline: apt-get dist-upgrade
Requested-By: simon (1000)
Upgrade: libpq5:amd64 (9.6.7-0ubuntu0.17.10, 9.6.8-0ubuntu0.17.10)
End-Date: 2018-03-06 15:50:39
I tried linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic and linux-image-4.13.0-36-generic
to no avail. I removed the "quiet splash" args from /etc/default/grub
but it didn't help. Using "nomodeset" makes the graphical session almost
work but the brightness of the screen is so low that I cannot use it and
can't make it brighter either.
