You have been subscribed to a public bug: Today I booted up and the update manager came to inform me I had updates (system was recently updated). I chose to do them because I'm having issues with HDMI audio (and audio in general, only headset via USB works) and it is an NVIDIA GPU.
However after reboot, the login screen is just blank with only the gray background. It is still the GUI but just no login box/logo/anything else. I chose xorg as the issue but I'm not certain of it. Not sure how to troubleshoot this as I'm unfamiliar with the inner workings of this. I have since attempted to reinstall the NVIDIA drivers using apt purge ~nnvidia and then reinstalling with ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, as well as reinstalling ubuntu-desktop and related components. I can still log in via terminal.
