I think i mis-read re comment #23, so you do see the Try Ubuntu screen (ubiquity-dm), so casper should have run (can you check if autologin options are enabled in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf.
>From your previous journal logs it looks like gdm is spawned 3 times with the first 2 failing. Though I can't really see what is different between the first 2 and the last. Still would like to see the new logs (there has been a new Xorg and kernel since last time) DRI is broken in all three (Comment #13), which means hardware GL will always be broken. You should probably file a kernel bug for that as its likely hardware specific. Does OpenGL rendering work on an installed desktop system or when you boot from advanced menu? This isnt likely to be causing the issue, it should fallback to software rendering, although sometimes maybe it doesnt. Also gnome-shell can be quite laggy with software rendering on weaker hardware -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1548864 Title: Ubuntu GNOME Xenial live image boots to tty1 and demands password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1548864/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
