OK, next please run these commands and send us the resulting files:
dmesg > dmesg.txt
journalctl > journal.txt
And in case something is crashing please also do:
1. Apply the workaround from bug 994921.
2. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run:
ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash
and tell us the ID of the newly-created bug.
3. If step 2 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where
ID is the contents of the /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id file on the
machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on the machine? If so
then please send them to us.

Title:
[radeon] GDM3 fails to load without nomodeset
Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Both with the livecd (usb drive) and the installed version, I must boot with
the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter at GRUB; otherwise GDM3 will not boot (the
screen will keep on flashing in semi-textual mode, with a white mouse arrow
stuck).
This, however, prevents me from using the 'radeon' video driver, dropping me
to a very basic 1024x768 vesa mode.
The bug did NOT occur on Ubuntu 12.04, so it is a regression.
Also, the bug does NOT occur on XUbuntu/XFCE 18.04, so it is a GDM3-Gnome
related thing.
Thanks,
MZ
