Thanks for the bug report.

The biggest issue here seems to be a kernel crash:

Jan 16 19:40:28 semiauto kernel: [84513.834489] adding CRTC not allowed without modesets: requested 0x4, affected 0x7
Jan 16 19:40:28 semiauto kernel: [84513.834564] WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 2041 at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c:1403 drm_atomic_check_only+0x40c/0x450 [drm]

But it sounds like the kernel is complaining that gnome-shell is to blame. To work around that, please try adding:

  MUTTER_DEBUG_FORCE_KMS_MODE=simple

to /etc/environment and then reboot.

But there are three different crashes here and we need separate bugs opened for each. The other two crashes are of 'gjs-console' and I can see 'gnome-shell' also crashed according to the log. Please open new bugs about each of those by following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Missing_a_crash_report_or_having_a_.crash_attachment
