(Get the code!)
The work-around I mentioned above (booting recovery + continue) does not seem to work reliably. It just took me half an hour to have a successful boot, to provide the apport-collect. A few more observations:
- For some reason my xorg.conf had been renamed to xorg.conf.11142015, without any xorg.conf in place. Apparently this must have happened yesterday, when my previous work around stopped working. I had the successful boot after renaming it back, but right now I don't dare to try out if this works systematically.
- Using kernel version 3.13.0-63 and earlier, X starts successfully and I end up with the default display manager. However, trying to log in results in an infinite loop of restarting the display manager. Furthermore, there seems to be a graphics issue: Even though the resolution seems to be standard 1080p, the image does not fill the entire screen area and sometimes the output is totally broken (very large stretch vertically, i.e., streching about 100 pixels over the entire screen plus strange color artifacts)
