Public bug reported:
I'm only seeing greeter wall paper. There is no username or dialog box
to enter my password -- no prompt. However, if I blindly type my
password, I can log on. I was installing cuda 8.0 today. I entered:
sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus
sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12
and then I restarted lightdm with
sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service
After that the system rebooted, and I no longer saw a greeter prompt.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you,
MikeyBee
