Thanks for the bug report. This sounds like gnome-shell has crashed and is being restarted:
> Whilst it is blanking, any running applications show their windows (which is not usual) but it appears gnome-shell and the window manager are not running (no dash and no window decorations). When gnome-shell crashes the apps are still running on the bare Xorg server so it looks different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881212 Title: Blank Screen initiates then fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1881212/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
