I am able to reproduce this following a reinstall of 18.04 from the ISO image, but only on the same box. No problems on two other computers. Will try reverting to 17.10 to see if that fixes the problem.
As for the component, can I test with alternative session managers, or is gdm3 the only game in town? thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768906 Title: Xorg crash Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When attempting to log in to a newly updated bionic beaver via the display manager (I think this is the right term), I immediately see a crash, a return to the user selection/login screen and a no-longer functioning keyboard and mouse.
