I'm sorry, but I no longer have the crash-report. I performed a clean install of Ubuntu (now 18.04) and the bug is gone. Next to the release difference (17.10 to 18.04), I did not install the nVidia proprietary driver. For me, this problem's solved. -- You received this bug notification

Thanks. I uninstalled LIRC, just to be on the safe side. Orca is necessary for my using the computer. I uncommented the line #WaylandEnable=false and rebooted. The problem still persists. Then, without logging in graphically, I switched to tty3 (Ctrl+Alt+F3). Logged in, executed a single command
