Fedora 26 update causes crash on boot

2017-07-20 Thread Robert Washbourne
Fedora 26 worked for a while but after selecting "restart and update" the
laptop now has this behavior (google photos link with vid):

https://photos.app.goo.gl/7lTzF5h09iRDZOzT2

Also, going to a new session with ctrl + alt + F2 and running startx starts
budgie desktop (crashes with gnome, my default) and it appears dbus did not
start from errors like

Method: No such interface 'org.freedesktop.Secret.Collection' on object at
path /org/freedesktop/secrets/collection/login

from launching Chrome.
Any tips?

Looks like it was a problem with gdm. Disabling gdm gives the usual console
login and it now works.

I'm running the same setup, are you talking about the url in a new tab? I
have the humble new tab extension and I see a url in the new tab window
