Public bug reported:

After the splash screen on boot, I get taken to a black screen which has
an active cursor.

I have to switch to tty1 (or another tty) and run the following:
 sudo service lightdm restart

Then I get taken to the lightdm login screen.

I'm not sure why it isn't starting properly, happy to help diagnose
though.
