<pre>Hi,
I'm running Debian Stretch with Gnome and Mate desktop (setup in different
drives), with Mate it works fine, when the computer is docked and powered on it
shows the login prompt on the laptop's screen and after login the desktop is
shown on both external screens.
With Gnome I can't login, only a background color and a cursor is shown on the
laptop screen.
If I add nomodeset to the boot parameters at least I see the login prompt but
can't see desktop.
Enabling automatic login I'm able to get to desktop and everything works fine.
Could it be a gdm bug?</pre>
