Title:
  leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering

Status in nux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After an upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04, I noticed that all gnome windows
  animations were gone.  After some digging, it seems that gnome-session
  incorrectly assumes that my graphics has no acceleration, when in fact
  it does: it's a i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz with Intel integrated graphics
  (i915 driver).

  I've tried this with and without the xserver-xorg-video-intel package
  (a.k.a. Intel driver) with the same behavior.

  The output of gnome-session-check-accelerated is: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0,
  256 bits)  however the system should have DRM 2.0 capability.

  GL checks (e.g. glxinfo, glxgears produce the expected output from a
  working DRM system).

  mesa-utils and mesa-utils-extra are both installed.

  I can't find a work around.  Perhaps there is something wrong with my
  install/upgrade?

  Everything else works fine, although the graphical transitions are no
  longer smooth.  But it would be nice to restore the expected behavior.

  I have attached the log of 'journalctl -b0'
