I get it with intel.
I try and login (gdm->gnome w/o wayland) and every once in a while I just get a black/grey screen with the cursor in the middle. If I wait long enough I craps out with an oops message, next time I login all extensions are disabled. I figured it's a bug in one of the extensions I use...
1. Activities Configurator
2. Caffeine
3. Clipboard Indicator
4. Dash to Dock
5. Disconnect WiFi
6. Hide legacy tray
7. Open Weather
8. Refresh wifi connections
9. User themes
10. Media Player indicator
Or I thought it could be the a theme I am using:
Gtk+ => Next Aurora
Shell theme => Radiance flat collor
Either way, yes I do see something close to what you are experiencing with Fedora 23..
I haven't dug into yet since it only happens to me on a fresh login. And this is a laptop that rarely sees a fresh login (after a reboot) .
Now I do seem to be having an issue with the GDM login screen displaying when I login after a sleep. The user / password window doesn't display, just the custom pic I set for the login window. I still just type my password and I can login, but that is a different story for another time.
Next time it happens I get some log output and send it.

I only fooled with this for about 5 minutes, but I'm getting a
black screen with GDM when I login. I just got the fedora 23
nvidia 340xx driver from rpmfusion which finally supports
xorg server 1.18 (nouveau won't work at all with my card),
and when I login with gdm, this is what happens
on the 3 or 4 tries I gave it while I had time to fool
with it:
I get the GDM login prompt drawn correctly, I select
the user, type the password and login.
The screen then goes black (or dark gray, anyway) and
the mouse pointer can move, but nothing else happens.
I've waited two or three minutes with no change.
I decide to go to a console screen and see what is
running, so I hit Ctrl-Alt-F2.
Boom! I instantly get a gnome3 desktop. If I do
Ctrl-Alt-F1, the desktop is still there.
I have no idea if it ever switched to console 2 or
not.
Just curious if anyone else has seen anything like this.
When I have time to fool with it I'll try ssh instead of
a console switch to poke around and try switching
login managers and desktops to see if they all have
the problem.
