Public bug reported: After running software update on 16.04 and rebooting, I cannot get past the login screen. The screen appears the wrong resolution and squashed smaller than the screen with a black border. When I login, it accepts the password, but after a few seconds the screen gets corrupted then resets back to the login screen.
Rebooting to an older kernel fixed the issue.
