Computer locked up and rebooted this morning. After computer rebooted and I tried to login, I got the black screen again. I'm assuming i'll get this black login every time I logout or reboot.
I was able to restart the logind service again and login afterwards. Hmm why does Xorg.0 consistently find the monitors but Xorg.1 doesn't until its restarted... Attaching syslog, xorg.0.log and xorg.1.log. Note the logs in ~/.local/ haven't been updated since I posted above. ** Attachment added: "syslog.gz" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1770238/+attachment/5139241/+files/syslog.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1770238 Title: [nvidia] Logging in results in a black screen for many minutes after which the login screen reappears and I am able to login fine.
