This is not a duplicate.  I just installed xserver-xorg-legacy.  It did
absolutely nothing.  Still black screen.  To clarify, this is a "monitor
on, just displaying black" not a "monitor off/unable to start the
xserver" issue.  Xorg logs don't show anything weird.  I've tried every
permission setting from the xorg-legacy configure screen.  No difference
-- actually, if you set it to "Root Only", gdm never comes up and
endlessly tries to restart, giving you a strobelight terminal, but
that's irrelevant to this bug (probably?).

Honestly, the only reason I care is because I'm trying to test out 
Gnome-wayland on the Nvidia proprietary drivers, because I heard it works now.  
It seems I have to go through gdm to get the Gnome-Wayland session to work.  If 
anyone has an alternate way of getting that to work, please pm me with the 
details because going this route seems to be a dead end.  Thanks.
