I think the SLiM errors may be due to this dm "not requiring systemd." I'm sure SLiM is not a good display manager for a system that relies on systemd. For the time being, however, it's the only recourse that enables me to log into Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic. Fortunately, I am not seeing any problematic artifacts so far. I have limited time for troubleshooting, so I won't trouble you further.

There are two main issues I can see: 1. The 'pixel-saver' extension may be causing some bugs so maybe remove it while debugging. 2. You haven't actually had a gdm3 boot attempt since 9 December. So the failures you are experiencing recently are from SLiM, which makes this bug invalid for gdm3.

Unable to take screenshot of the boot hang (duh) so I copied verbatim the two lines that appear in a *backlit* black screen (not sure if the backlight makes a difference,) and added a note about changes in the power button behavior during boot time.

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: This is not a question, but I found no thread to report this bug and workaround on NON-NVIDIA-BASED systems: Ubuntu 18.10, kernel 4.18.0-12-generic, GNOME Shell 3.30.1 on X11, after a Dec 9 update: Boot hangs at message, "Starting bpfilter." Gnome Display Manager (login) fails to start. No keyboard response, tapping the power button just once immediately initiates power-down. Other users have reported successfully fixing this by removing nVidia drivers or disabling Wayland in GDM3 (uncommenting WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf.) However, my HP laptop runs Intel graphics, and has no nVidia drivers installed. WORKAROUND I selected Enable Networking in Recovery Mode, then Drop to Shell Prompt (root,) and ran apt update && apt install slim to install SLiM display manager. the installation prompted me to choose SLiM or GDM as the default, I chose SLiM, and was able to login finally (after rebooting 50+ times.) If you already have an alternate display manager installed, you can switch with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" and select the alt dm. - This will probably be just a provisional workaround for the "bpfilter - hang" on non-nVidia systems if all the other suggested solutions didn't - work for you.
