Open bug in launchpad.net https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1300980 "Testing the Ubuntu Gnome beta 2 in a VirtualBox VM. Every time I restart/start the VM, the first login will fail (after gdm greeter I have a black screen with the crash report window). Killing X (either with ctrl-alt-bcksp if enabled, or with sudo restart gdm from a VT) and logging in again do work reliably, and allowed me to file this bug report."

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
