Bug Description

after reboot during upgrade 18.04 to 18.10, screen doesn't show login, see pic.
However, if I mouseover the line, colors/lines change, and if I click middle of screen I see the cursor changing from 'arrow' to 'vertical line where you can type'. I then type the login password and voilà! I get the cosmic cuttlefish desktop and everything works fine :-D

I have 2 more pics for the blind/hidden login sequence

hi Daniel,

just updated to 19.04 (disco dingo) and the bug is still there, identical.
Good thing, I can bypass it by setting the user login to automatic - same
as I did in the cosmic.

cheers,
