I'm running Xerus. Routine upgrades upgraded the kernel from 4.4.0-45 to
4.4.0-47. The next time I booted (because plasmashell refused to start,
a probably unrelated bug), the "kubuntu" splash screen was about twice
as wide as normal. It showed the disk password prompt, but I couldn't
get it to work. After I fiddled around with recovery, and still couldn't
enter the disk password, I got the Xubuntu splash screen, I have no idea
why. It appeared to be asking for the root password and the disk
password at the same time. I ran memtest to see if there's a memory
problem (there wasn't). Then I thought, maybe something's wrong with the
kernel. I booted the previous kernel and successfully entered the disk
password. sddm didn't show anything, but I got around that by stopping
sddm and running lightdm instead.
