I was suggesting the 5.5 beta driver which is the latest (December 2021) - https://www.synaptics.com/products/displaylink-graphics/downloads/ubuntu. It works with the official jammy kernel 5.15. I know that because it's what I'm using in development.

Also please don't use the nouveau driver. It causes too many bugs so you should always stick to the Nvidia proprietary driver instead.

The next steps here are:

1. Enable debug mode in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf:

   [debug]
   Enable=true

2. Reboot and reproduce the no-login-screen problem again.

3. Reboot again, this time into recovery/safe mode and run:

   journalctl -b-1 > debugprevboot.txt

4. Attach the resulting text file here.
