Bug#977318: corrections to description

i would like to make two corrections to this report:

where i wrote
   * What led up to the situation?
   presumably an apt upgrade

this is incorrect. not a apt upgrade issue, but x hanging and a subsequent
reboot (possibly hard reboot -- can't recall at this moment) let up to it.

------------

where i wrote:
[... and i can switch to a non-x terminal and
observe that the machine is reletively unloaded....]

this is incorrect. i CAN switch to a terminal, but the x-hang/stuck screen
does not disappear. i can perform commands in the terminal blindly such as
killall firefox-esr
(which does seem to kill firefox, as the audio then stops) but
the hung x-screen remains until a reboot.

-----------

when the screen seems hung during the login/sddm problem described i AM
able to work in a non-x terminal however, so that part is correct.

apologies for the confusion. i think the x problem and sddm problem are
unlikely to be related anyway, but i include them here just in case, for
completeness.
