Public bug reported:
After installing the proprietary NVIDIA driver (384) I've been faced
with a black screen after reboot. It turned out, that when I moved the
mouse, the login screen appeared. The screen goes black immediately when
I stop moving the mouse. I can normally put the password in on the black
screen and go on with my life, but, you know, it doesn't look stable :)
After I get the system up from sleeping (which didn't work earlier but
suddenly started working) the log in screen in displayed normally.
My system (Alienware 15 R3) has Intel's i7-7820HK and NVIDIA's GeForce
GTX 1070 Mobile 8GB
