The monitor’s DVI cable and a DVI-to-DP adapter is plugged into the
DisplayPort port of the AMD graphics card. The TTY login screen can be
shortly seen before GDM tries to start.
Please find the last X.Org server messages below.

The USB keyboard does not work, and the system has to be controlled
remotely over SSH. Plugging in the DisplayPort cable into the internal
Intel graphics ports the Linux messages can be seen, but nothing else
works. Stopping GDM does not bring back the TTY screen. The keyboard
still does work. Plugging the USB cable out and back in doesn’t fix it
either.
Trying to disable the internal Intel graphics card, did not fix the
problem either.
Blacklisting the module *i915* works around the problem.
Please tell me if you want me to create a bug report for this issue,
and, if yes, what part in the graphics stack this problem belongs to.
It's hard to be sure without seeing a backtrace of the assertion
failure, but I'd say start at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg&component=Server/Ext/RandR.
Do you know why the stack trace is not present in the X server log? I
was able to get a stack trace as root and with GDB. Issue #102222
(dix/dispatch.c:4049: AttachOffloadGPU: Assertion `new->current_master
== pScreen' failed.) tracks this problem now, and the stack traces are
attached there.
Kind regards,
Paul
