My reproducer: 1) I used virtualbox 6.0.0 on disco (my desktop machine) # I guess it doesn't really matter but I prefer giving more details than less ;) 2) Deploy a VM with Ubuntu 18.04.1 (which come w/ 4.15) 3) Make sure in the VM setting that the display uses 'VMSVGA' which will force the OS to pick 'vmwgfx' video kernel driver. (you can confirm with 'lspci -nnvv' command. 4) apt-get dist-upgrade
Then reboot and the login screen won't be shown again using v4.15 kernel. Switch to 4.18 will work.
