** Description changed: My yakkety installation is now for some reason in shape that lightdm only starts with a black screen, although mouse cursor is shown and movable and "wifi networks available" popup is shown at the top right corner. + + After some while this disappears and the system goes to some sort of tty + switching loop where sometimes text cursor is shown and sometimes just + blank screen. If I want to recover text console control of machine I + need to quickly after booting switch to tty1 and stop lightdm. + + This started happening last week after some upgrades and a reboot. I've tried reinstalling and everything I can think of, but I can't fix it. Meanwhile using sddm I can't log in to Unity 7 or 8, and gdm doesn't start at all. I couldn't also use ubuntu-bug since I can't use the browser interface from command line (otherwise it works fine until that point) and it segfaults under Plasma environment while collecting information.
