You know that 17=2E10 is a sort of beta version, yes?
It is hard to get to the bottom of it after you have been using again, but=
 next time tr
 journalctl -b=20
and look at /var/log/Xorg=2Elog=2E0
Caveat : that is the log of the -current- session, but you will find more =
files in that directory=2E=20
