gnome-session-flashback.target is a disabled or a static unit
On Ubuntu 18.04 (64-bit)
Hello, I uninstalled my amdgpu driver along with my video card and it bricked my GNOME session - I get an endless login loop. My unity session works fine. If I try to reinstall the classic session, I get:
sudo apt install --reinstall gnome-session-flashback

I've installed the card again, with the exact same amdgpu-pro driver, but this error continues to persist.
Any help is appreciated!
