Looking at hungboot.txt I am starting to think maybe the login screen ('gnome-shell' process) is actually running in Wayland mode but failing to display. That would explain a lot... Pat, can you please reproduce the bug again and while it is happening: 1. SSH into the VM. 2. Run 'pidof gnome-shell' to find out the process ID of that process. Tell us if you don't get a result. 3. If you do get a result from step 2 then using that PID run: sudo kill -ABRT PID where PID is the process ID number. 4. Wait 30 seconds. 5.

[Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but setting WaylandEnable=false fixes it
I have been trying to reproduce this bug in VMware but have not been able to. Ubuntu 18.04 always starts up with a login screen successfully for me. What it does not do successfully is offer the "Ubuntu on Wayland" option most of the time. So I expect that's the same root cause as this bug. Ordinarily if Wayland support is attempted and fails gracefully then your journalctl log should show something like: Jun 14 02:28:16 ubuntu gnome-shell[790]: Failed to create backend: Could not find a primary drm kms device If you don't see that message and still don't get Wayland support then it suggests mutter/gnome-shell is crashing during that attempt to try Wayland. In that case we would ask you to follow these instructions from within the virtual machine: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Missing_a_crash_report_or_having_a_.crash_attachment I'll dig a bit deeper to try and find out why Wayland support seems to work so rarely, because that's the part of this bug I can reproduce. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1832138 Title: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but setting WaylandEnable=false fixes it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1832138/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but setting WaylandEnable=false fixes it
Hi Daniel, It doesn't appear anything has actually crashed when this scenario happens. /var/crash is empty The contents of my /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id is; d0d31e5e858096f38cba06e106ab0375a0e96fd9fda7031d320fa3966f0064bba364acdc53d42bce08a29148a49314d352455fe8b6cb716c20dbf804d8711876 There is nothing at;https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/d0d31e5e858096f38cba06e106ab0375a0e96fd9fda7031d320fa3966f0064bba364acdc53d42bce08a29148a49314d352455fe8b6cb716c20dbf804d8711876 When the system boots up, I briefly see the splash screen then the splash goes away and all I see is a completely blank purple-ish page. No login page. No indications at all that anything has gone wrong perse. And no log files.

Thanks. That log is shorter than I expected. Maybe something crashed in the startup process.

[Bug 1832138] Re: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but setting WaylandEnable=false fixes it
In order to debug this problem we would need you to reintroduce it. That means: 1. Comment out again: WaylandEnable=false 2. Reboot and ensure you don't see the login screen. 3. Log in via SSH while the problem is happening and run: journalctl -b0 > hungboot.txt and send us the resulting file 'hungboot.txt'. ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: mutter (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1832138 Title: Login screen never appears on vmwgfx but setting WaylandEnable=false fixes it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1832138/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
