(I'm taking over following up on this for Kayleigh.) We're unable to
reproduce the problem with the daily current live image. (It's not an
identical setup, obviously - live ISO versus custom image with nodm -
but everything seems to work.)

Title:
  Black screen on boot after updating Trusty

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Current release: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
  Current version: v3.13.0.68.74
  Expected behavior: System boots to GUI showing chromium-browser
  What happened: Booted to black screen

  After updating my linux kernel from v3.13.0.32.38 to v3.13.0.68.74, my
  system does not boot into the GUI properly anymore. X11 starts up and
  I have confirmed that I can interact with the screen that should be
  there via keyboard (using chromium logs, I can confirm that I can open
  new tabs with CTRL+T), but the screen is completely black. If I
  restart nodm, X11 restarts and comes up as it should. If I simply
  switch to the vivid kernel (v3.19.0.33.20) on the same system the
  problem goes away and the system boots properly every time, as well as
  the system working fine until I update just the linux-generic package.

  Other possibly useful information:
  - Every time the system boots to a black screen, plymouth does not appear while booting nor can I TTY switch to it after booting (instead the TTY it should be on is a black screen with a blinking cursor), which is opposite of the behavior observed when the system boots properly.
  - Attached Xorg.0.log (produced from a bad boot).
