Public bug reported:

I installed Ubuntu 17.04 from a daily image downloaded yesterday in a
Virtualbox VM (Host Ubuntu version is 17.04). The installation works
fine and without any issues. However, when I install all the updates and
reboot, I am no longer able to log in. GDM doesn't start. Instead, I see
a completely black screen with a few (one or two) white pixels. I am
still able to SSH into the installation after this.

Steps to reproduce:
* Create a Virtualbox VM
* Install Ubuntu 17.10 from daily image (I downloaded mine on 9/20/2017 @ 
12:49pm Eastern)
* Install all updates (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade)
* Reboot
