Public bug reported:

I can login using unity but when I choose gnome it takes while and the
screen turns black and eventually it brings me back to the login page.
this only started happening after upgrading to ubuntu 17.10.

I've tried removing the .Xauthority file. I've also tried purging Nvidia
drivers.
