Bug description:
I recently updated to Ubuntu 18.04. After updating I can only log into
Gnome if I select Gnome or Ubuntu with Wayland at my login screen.
Nothing I can do will allow me tuse Xorg. I tried reinstalling Xorg
and reinstalling my video driver (nvidia-390) . If I select Ubuntu
with Xorg at login I get a purple screen and frozen mouse. If I set
etting |WaylandEnable=false| in |/etc/gdm/custom.conf| I cannot get to
the login screen. The system freezes.
