Bug Description
How I produced the crash:
* sudo service gdm3 stop
* launch Xorg as root
* open another tty
* export DISPLAY=:0
* gnome-shell
* CTRL-ALT-F1 to see gnome-shell, all I see is the mouse cursor blinks over a black background then stops blinking
* when I go back to the previous terminal I see:
$ gnome-shell
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Restarting gdm3 doesn't produce the crash file but only produces a black screen with mouse pointer blinking initially.
