Public bug reported:

I'm only seeing greeter wall paper.  There is no username or dialog box
to enter my password -- no prompt.  However, if I blindly type my
password, I can log on.  I was installing cuda 8.0 today.  I entered:

sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus
sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12

and then I restarted lightdm with

sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service

After that the system rebooted, and I no longer saw a greeter prompt.

I appreciate any help.

Thank you,

MikeyBee
