Public bug reported:
Legacy laptop, Dell Vostro 1720, booted to black screen after fresh full
disk install. Using ctrl-alt-f2 to drop to a terminal and issuing
"startx" completed the boot process.
Installed NVidia 340 driver which crashed the current session and sent
me to an endless GUI (sddm?) login loop where login immediately crashed
back to the GUI login.
Rebooting from the login screen worked as expected and system is running
fine now.
