I have an issue with Ubuntu 18.04. I was preparing a presentation and I had to force the shut down since the screen was blocked. When I rebooted this was the message (on black screen), no more. I have tried to do different things and the most relevant lines are:
1)Started GNOME Display Manager.ever.tcher Service....system changes.pp link was shut down
2)Stopping user manager for UID120....
I trided with systemcl status display-manager from root:
gdm-service - GNOME Display manager Loaded:loaded (/lib/systemd/system/gdm.service; static; vendor preset enabled) Active:Inactive(dead)
I tried to check with journalctl to understand a bit more and apparenly this is the first reboot since I have installed a huge software (suspicious). I would not be surprised if there is some mismatching. I have isolated all the " install " in dpkg.log when I installed the software, but I don't know if the solution can be to remove them one by one since they are quite a lot.
Any suggestion please?
