Public bug reported:
On 18.04
gdm3 3.28.0-0ubuntu1
4.15.0-20-generic
I suspect it is related to gdm3, but not sure.
On freshly installed final release of bionic, I somtimes cannot login to gnome
desktop. It is always preceeded by failed login attempt even though password is
correct.
I can switch to a virtual console, but nothing happens when trying to
switch back to graphical CTRL+ALT+F7 - stays in console.
It seems that sudo /etc/init.d/gdm3 restart might fix the problem, but I
havn't tested extensively yet.
Note also that when the problem occurs there is no XDG_SESSION choices
available on the login screen. The "settings" icon next to the login
button is gone. After this an attempt to login with correct password
will fail, and the second attempt to login with take me to the blank
screen + cursor situation described above.
I can't say how to reproduce. On my machine it happens 50% of the times.
