I forgot to include introductory links to this complicated issue. My crude understanding is that systemd handles system initialization, calling bpfilter (replacing iptables) which is handled by the linux kernel. https://thenewstack.io/systemd-vs-linux-kernel/

SOLVED (MAYBE) For me, it's not nVidia, it's not WaylandEnable. It may be the "Started bpfilter" message, which I earlier thought was nothing. I don't know beans about this, but I checked, and bpfilter is a recent replacement for iptables in many Linux distros, and it's handled in the linux

GDM3 fails to start, stalled at 'started bpfilter' on my HP laptop (model hp15-ay016nr) which runs Intel graphics, no nVidia hardware or drivers. So, this is not strictly an nVidia issue, which began after a Sat 8 December upgrade. Booting previous kernels did not fix the problem. Disabling

Chad, I don't agree that "the XDG utilities aren't written very well." The problem is that there's little agreement between both applications and platforms on how defaults are detected, and the script is doing its best to accommodate all the scenarios that cause issues. I believe I have tried

Ctrl-H in VLC actually is a workaround for the double menu syndrome by removing the menu from the window titlebar. I removed VLC and its addon modules, and installed SMPlayer, a frontend for MPlayer. On entering and exiting Fullscreen in SMPlayer, SMPlayer also displays double menus in the system

Double menubars in VLC returned with repeated test openings of different video files. It doesn't seem to be file format-specific, occurs with OGV, MP4, WMV formats. It seems it may be related to the default window position. VLC un-maximized always opens partly off-screen in Unity (res 1366x768),
