The boot process hangs with the last message being "started bpfilter".
There is unusual Network activity during that time. The light of the
WiFi adapter is blinking a lot.
I am not sure the problem is with the gdm3 package. As a matter of fact,
I would remove it and let someone more experienced to set it. I'm afraid
I might break something, though.
The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the
problem: 1. Boot Ubuntu 18.10 with the Nvidia proprietary drivers
installed.
The behavior you expected: I expected Ubuntu 18.10 to boot normally.
The behavior you actually encountered: The computer gets stuck in a
command-like environment with the last message being "started bpfilter".
You can't type any commands.
I have found that uninstalling the Nvidia proprietary drivers by going
into recovery mode fixes the issue.
Booting with the earlier kernel doesn't fix the issue. Installing the
earlier v.340 driver also doesn't fix the issue.
This (https://askubuntu.com/questions/1032639/ubuntu-18-04-stuck-in-
boot-after-starting-gnome-display-manager-on-intel-graphic) seems
relevant. This is where I found the "solution".
