Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu 20.10
Release: 20.10
5.8.0-25-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 15 10:30:38 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
After upgrading to Groovy Gorilla, my laptop hangs on the Ubuntu splash screen after login. Workaround: Press CTRL+ALT+DEL then select recovery mode for the 5.8 kernel, then select 'Resume'. Also, the screen resolution seems to be lower than normal.
