Dear Maintainer,

 What led up to the situation? Installed nvidia-kernel-dkms

 What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? Installed the package and rebooted to get the new kernel, this resulted in loss of GUI login

 What was the outcome of this action? Lost GUI interface

 What outcome did you expect instead? To have GUI interface with the Nvidia drivers If it matters, I have a GP104 [GeForce GTX1080] for a GPU
