Hi Daniel, It doesn't appear anything has actually crashed when this scenario happens. /var/crash is empty
The contents of my /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id is; d0d31e5e858096f38cba06e106ab0375a0e96fd9fda7031d320fa3966f0064bba364acdc53d42bce08a29148a49314d352455fe8b6cb716c20dbf804d8711876 There is nothing at;https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/d0d31e5e858096f38cba06e106ab0375a0e96fd9fda7031d320fa3966f0064bba364acdc53d42bce08a29148a49314d352455fe8b6cb716c20dbf804d8711876 When the system boots up, I briefly see the splash screen then the splash goes away and all I see is a completely blank purple-ish page. No login page. No indications at all that anything has gone wrong perse. And no log files.
