** Description changed: - I've installed ubuntu desktop 17.10 amd64 from scratch in UEFI mode on a Dell XPS 15 9560 laptop. - This laptop comes with i915 built-in graphics, as well as an NVIDIA 1050 GPU, but I am not trying to make the NVIDIA work yet, and have blacklisted nouveau. - - I'm using xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu3 - xserver-xorg-video-intel/artful,now 2:2.99.917+git20170309-0ubuntu1 amd64 - - I have to set acpi_rev_override=5 in the kernel boot parameters, because - rev 6 causes other bugs (hang on shutdown, for example.) - - I'm using whatever the default desktop (presumably Gnome) and compositor - are for a ubuntu desktop install. - - I can boot to login; I can log in to desktop, but shortly after desktop login, the screen goes black, and after a little while, I'm back at the login screen. - Logging in again, works, but at that point, I believe I'm in "dumb software mode." + Shortly after logging in for the first time, the screen goes black, and + after a little while, I'm back at the login screen. A subsequent login + puts me in "dumb software mode."
