Public bug reported:

I have observed the following on two different computers:

On both computers, running Ubuntu 18.04, I am able to install xrdp and
log in remotely using a third computer via Reminna or Windows RDP client
without any problems.

If I do a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04.2 and install xrdp OR if I
update my working 18.04 installation by running

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-18.04
xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04

then xrdp stops working. That is, when I login using an RDP client, I am
presented with the xrdp login screen, but when I select xorg and try to
login with my username and password, I see a blue screen for about a
minute and then

connecting to sesman ip 127.0.0.1
sesman connect ok
sending login info to session manager, please wait...
login successful for display 10
started connecting
connection problem, giving up
some problem

The only difference between the working configuration and the broken one
is Ubuntu 18.04 vs 18.04.2 (OR HWE installed using the above command).

Out of the two computers I tried one has nvidia graphics and one has
intel on-board graphics. For the nvidia computer, I tried both nvidia
and nouveau drivers to no avail.

Not sure if this is a problem with xrdp or xorg.
