Public bug reported:
I did a new install today of Mint 18.3 on my laptop. Dell latitude E6410
Installed without connecting to the internet.
After install finished I booted a few times before connecting an external
monitor. It still booted ok.
Then I ran the software update and got a bunch of level 1 and level 2 updates.
No problems.
There were four level 3 updates
systemd 229-4ubuntu21.1
linix-firmware 1.157.16
linux-libc-dev 4.4.0-116.140
linuxkernel 4.13.0-36.40-16.041
I installed them one at a time and restarted the laptop after each one.
After the kernel update the laptop would boot and show the square mint icon for
a brief time them the screen goes dark. Once I disconected the external
monitor the laptop rebooted correctly.
I tested the external montior with VGA and HDMI to DVI cable. The same
response. I reverted to the 4.10.0-38 kernel that came with the
installer ISO. Am back up and running.
There is a problem with the new kernel.
