This bug was fixed in the package gdm3 - 3.28.0-0ubuntu2 --------------- gdm3 (3.28.0-0ubuntu2) cosmic; urgency=medium
* debian/patches/0001-libgdm-Don-t-unref-a-connection-that-s-in-use.patch, debian/patches/0002-libgdm-add-weak-pointer-for-connection-object.patch: Cherry-pick two patches from the 3.28 branch. These fix a refcounting bug in the GDM Client object, which had meant that the DBus connection was being disposed too early in some cases, particularly when logging in after a failed attempt. The symptom of that was that the system hung on a "blank" screen.
