Bug Description
Since the upgrade to Xenial i have the problem that the login screen is not appearing. I only see a blank screen on both monitors.
I am able to switch to console and login. I also looked into the Xorg.0.log but there was no error, just nothing is shown. I tried restarting sddm and once had luck that it worked. Now even with restarting i can not get the login working.
Sometimes it shows the login screen but keyboard and mouse are not working there. CTRL+ALT+DEL restart still works.
I installed gnome now besides it and now have created the bug report from here. If i can provide additional information please let me know.
I did not have this problem in 15.10. It just started after the upgrade to 16.04.

Sorry, made an error and created an additional bug instead of attaching the information here. I marked https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ xorg/+bug/ 1563946 as duplicate. Here the comment:
Due to more testing i found out that the problem may not be related to sddm. Switching to gdm3 only worked sometimes.
I also found out that detaching one monitor and starting sddm works for me. I can connect the monitor again before loging in and everything is fine.
If i switch to gdm3 i not only need to stop/start the service. I also need to do a dpkg-reconfigure sddm and switch between sddm and gdm3 in order to have it working.
