I should mention, those results are with Intel graphics.  With AMD graphics the screen just goes all garbled and not blank.

Comment 2 Bill Gianopoulos 2016-08-29 11:41:03 UTC
This can be reproduced easily by executing the following command from a gnome terminal window:

  sudo dnf reinstall glibc

Comment 3 Bill Gianopoulos 2016-09-11 14:38:04 UTC
OK I just had the exact same issue on a system running an xorg session doing a glibc update.  I am moving this to be a glibc issue.  whatever it is doing in the update process that seems to be either hardware or session provider dependent it should not be doing.
