Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting
After installing xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting, and restarting,
the screen goes blank. I can hear the sound of gdm starting, so I know
the computer has not crashed - but the screen stays blank. Installing
xserver-xorg-video-i810 and restarting the computer resolves the
problem. I don't know which additional logs I can post, but please let
me know and I will get what ever information may be required to help
resolve this.

Install xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting via apt and restart the laptop.
