I am seeing the same problem I think. The system crashes on boot in kernel 4.13.0-26-generic in Ubuntu , but boots fine on 4.10.0=42-generic. I have a Dell Precision T3600 with a Xeon E5-1620 CPU. ecause the system doesn't boot (even in recovery mode), I cannot run apport-bug to file detailed logs. I can upload a screenshot of the crash if necessary.

What I can report from memory is that the crash comes from dereferencing a NULL. On my most recent attempt, the last [Ok] message before the crash related to the sound card, and another one comes up after the error message related to the keyboard. Then everything freezes. I have no reason to believe that either of these modules is actually the culprit.
