Public bug reported: ** Ubuntu Bionic; Nvidia GTX 1050 w/`nvidia-390` drivers
** Problem: Logging in results in a black screen for many minutes after which the login screen reappears and I am able to login fine. The below log seems to be the earliest error when this occurs. Note: This happened twice today so far, presumably each time I reboot. May 9 11:04:06 jcormier-MS-7A93 /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[2581]: (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to acquire modesetting permission.
