Public bug reported: After booting to gdm, there are a few flashing underline style cursors flashing in various places on the screen. It looks like a VT is "bleeding" through but in a corrupted way.
In addition, the ctrl-alt-F<n> keys don't switch VTs. Logging out and in again and they will then work and the flashing cursor has gone.
