Unfortunately, I can't reproduce the problem on my system, running the 435 driver in 19.10.
What I don't see on my system is the following error from logind: Oct 02 21:53:45 magni /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1220]: (EE) Error systemd-logind returned paused fd for drm node Compare this from Martin's journald log: Oct 02 21:53:45 magni /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1220]: (II) xfree86: Adding drm device (/dev/dri/card0) ...

After boot, I'm shown the GDM login screen (which I shouldn't; I have auto login enabled), and logging in just takes me back to the same user selection screen even though the password is correct. If I switch to a TTY and run `sudo pkill gnome-session-binary`, logging in through GDM starts working again. I should add that the do-release-upgrade was rocky; I did it in a terminal from within gnome, went away for a while, and when I returned, I just saw an Ubuntu 19.10 in a TTY. I was able to do `sudo dpkg --configure -a` and complete the upgrade, but I don't know if something's still messed up due to that.
