login screen solid blue with "fire" images in random boxes

Reported by jsm...@stillwaterschools.com, Nov 14 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.89 Safari/537.36
Platform: 9765.85.0 (Official Build) stable-channel reks

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. open Chromebook
2. see bizarreness
3. reboot to clear and resume normal operation

What is the expected behavior?
no crazy screen

What went wrong?
Entirely unclear. These are Lenovo N42-20 Chromebooks, running with a public session, but this happens before a login to anything is ever attempted. Purely randomly, hard to reproduce. Screenshot attached.

I'll grab logs of an affected machine if someone will tell me exactly what/where to grab. Lenovo's answer so far has been "powerwash". (These are managed Chromebooks, so we use recovery tool to refresh them new.)

Did this work before? Yes Didn't see this before r60 at least.

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.123  Channel: stable

Could this be related to blur?

Reks is "strago" family with kernel 3.18.
Powerwash will not resolve the problem. This happens occasionally only at non-dev mode.
It is due to GPU hang so tile uses wrong texture. But what cause the GPU hang is unknown.

In another  issue 776613 , some investigations think it is due to the kernel change for kernal 3.18.
Sounds like a match with 776613.

jsmith@, I also think so.

If you like to provide some logs, you can still type password to enter system when this happens. And then you can file a report by "alt+shift+i" with system information so that we can double check.

You also can type file:///var/log/messages in browser location bar to see the log. You should find "GPU hang" error in the log when this happens.
