Title:
  X windows hnags following upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Following an upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 when I boot, X windows comes
  to a point where I get a white background with a bunch of colored
  dots.  Nothing progresses from there.

  I can boot successfully by pressing escape after booting, going to
  advanced options, booting to 5.4.0-29 recovery mode.  When that menu
  appears, I select "root".  I press Enter for maintenance.

  When the root prompt appears I immediately type EXIT to return to the
  menu and then RESUME followed by OK.

  The system then starts the desktop properly.

  I would be happy to provide boot logs and/or Xorg.0.logs if desired.
  It appears to me that there are out of memory errors occurring along
  with some addressing issues.

  I am on an HP EliteBook 8570w laptop 15.6 G memory.
