Public bug reported: After I upgrade Kubuntu from 17.10 to 18.04, and restarted it, all I'm seeing is my mouse cursor, which responds to my movements, and that's pretty much it. I tried to see if I can start up sddm, but that failed.
I got to login by installing slick-greeter and use that instead. After logging in, the message says: <blockquote> Plasma is unable to start as it could not correctly use OpenGL 2. Please check that your graphics drivers are set up correctly. </blockquote> I checked the environment variable `$DISPLAY`, but it seems to be unset. I tried reinstalling `plasma-desktop`, `sddm`, `mesa` drivers, `xorg`, `xserver-xorg*intel`, `kde*`, `kwin`, and `nvidia-340` drivers. My laptop is a Lenovo Z40 with NVIDIA GT810m (currently disabled and using Intel HD Graphics).
