Rebooting the machine a SECOND time resolves the issue. However, I should not have to reboot twice for the new setting to take effect. Steps to Reproduce: 1. When the machine boots up with scrambled graphics, press Control+Alt+F3 2. Log into the machine using the tty session and run "sudo editor /etc/gdm3/custom.conf 3. Set Wayland to false and reboot 4. Notice after reboot the same ASCII appears Expected Results: Ubuntu Boot splash screen appears. Actual Results: ASCII text reading "Ubuntu 18.04" appears instead.
