dino99, thanks for reporting the bug to GNOME. Could the other people experiencing this bug also report bugs upstream to GNOME? The developers don't know about this bug unless someone tells them. And they might not all be the same bug. That's especially the case for those who experience a

I don't think mir has anything to do with this. For those with NVIDIA hardware, it's possible that something needs to be done better in the NVIDIA drivers so you're welcome to talk to the NVIDIA driver packager about that. If you want to confirm that it's not distro-specific, you could try

@Jeremy, if gnome's dev seems blaming 'gdm', that point out an other unexpected mess : when lightdm is reconfigured to use 'lightdm' and/or lightdm is purged then reinstalled, why and how 'gdm' can disturb the X start ? Seems to me that X/wayland/mir/... relationship is messy: if the user choose
