Public bug reported:
This is a live USB environment (16.04, 2016-01-29 image). HP Envy x360
hybrid notebook. Package installed: 1.0.12+15.10.20150609-0ubuntu1 .
After installing the mir desktop session package and choosing "logout", the
greeter correctly shows Unity8 as a login option. After entering "ubuntu" and a
blank password, the screen goes to black (with backight), the fan runs for a
few seconds of high activity, and no graphical session ever actually starts.
The other tty screens remain available, and lightdm is eventually able to
restart (though only after some time, and it is unclear if the commands to
restart it are actually helping).
Some selected error messages from the time of session login:
*From lightdm.log*:
