Yes it might have been Mesa.

[Bug 1754218] Re: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system
It wasn't due to nvidia-drm.modeset=0. gdm still works with that absent from the boot parameters. It could be a fix in gdm3, which is now at 3.27.92-0ubuntu1. But https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/ suggests that was released over a week ago, and this problem was definitely still present yesterday. It could also have been a fix in mesa, which I see has gone from 18.0.0~rc4 to 18.0.0~rc5. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754218 Title: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1754218/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It definitely still happened with 3.28.0-1 (I reported that at the upstream bug, so I'm sure about that). Another change I made was to boot the kernel with nvidia-drm.modeset=0, but I'm not sure how that would affect things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754218 Title: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1754218/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Ok, I've finally got nvidia-driver-390 installed. I still get the black screen in gdm problem in intel and gdm crashes with a divide-by-zero error when I tried to boot using nvidia. But I still don't think this is at all related to the nvidia driver, because if I purge all the nvidia drivers gdm still gives me a black screen. Is it possible it's checking the hardware and doing something weird?

I would go further and probably blame gdm3 or mutter.

There hasn't been any feedback from the developers at the upstream bug. Is there any other information I could provide to help debug this?

[Bug 1754218] Re: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system
I'll try and describe the gdm login screen behaviour in more detail: 1. With no external monitor, the gdm login screen is shown as expected. This is true whether I unplug the external monitor after gdm is running or boot up without it plugged in at all. If I unplug the monitor, it takes a bit longer than I would expect before I see gdm's login screen, but it does eventually appear. 2. With an external monitor plugged in, the external monitor works correctly (it shows the gdm background) but the laptop monitor shows only a mouse cursor (or text cursor when entering a password). The background that it shows is whatever the last tty console was showing, so eg if I switch to tty3 and log in, then switch back to tty1, I see the mouse cursor and all the text left on the screen from tty3. This behaviour occurs on boot and also when I switch users or log out, ie whenever gdm's login screen should be visible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754218 Title: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1754218/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

nvidia-387 is from the http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics- drivers/ppa/ubuntu ppa. But I'd say that this bug is not at all related to the nvidia module, because the problem persists when I completely remove all nvidia packages from the system. At all times I'm using the i915 module, so it is more likely to be related to that or the modeset(?) driver than to nvidia. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754218 Title: [regression] gdm 3.27 shows blank login screen on primary monitor when two monitors are connected on a hybrid intel/nvidia system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1754218/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
