Thanks.

Unfortunately I can only see problems caused by your changes so it's hard or even impossible to see the original problem.

Please undo these changes (or just reinstall Ubuntu and don't redo them):

 * lightdm is installed. Please uninstall it.

 * The kernel is starting without modesetting support. Please remove 'nomodeset' from your kernel command line.

 * Xorg is using the Intel driver when it should be using modesetting instead. Please remove your xorg.conf config files. The modesetting driver should work after you have removed 'nomodeset' from your kernel command line.

 * GDM isn't trying to use Wayland. Please comment out WaylandEnable=false from /etc/gdm3/custom.conf. This should work after you have removed 'nomodeset' from your kernel command line and have mutter >= 3.28.3-2~ubuntu18.04.2

If you choose to reinstall then you will need to temporarily use the workaround from bug 1727356 again (WaylandEnable=false). But you should only need that prior to installing the fix: mutter >= 3.28.3-2~ubuntu18.04.2 Then you can comment it out again (#WaylandEnable=false).

So once you have undone ALL of those changes or reinstalled Ubuntu and updated, please:

1. Reproduce the problem of the login screen not appearing.

2. Reboot and start in recovery mode.

3. Run: journalctl -b-1 > prev_boot.txt
   and send us the resulting file 'prev_boot.txt'.
