Folks,
  shortly after F28 was released I upgraded one of my systems to F28 using fedup.  Since that day, despite all the updates I have installed, I still cannot run the MATE desktop on that system.  Before the upgrade, when the system ran F27, I ran MATE without any problems.  Now as soon as I login I get a screen that is completely messed up :-(.  However, if instead of the MATE desktop I select the Gnome Classic desktop, it appears just fine and I can use it.  This problem with F28 and MATE does not affect just this one system, I upgraded a second system and created to F28 VMs, one under VirtualBox and one under VMware.  Of these 4 F28 systems, the only one that is usable with the MATE desktop is the VM under VirtualBox.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the problem?  As I said this worked fine under F27.

I am reluctant to upgrade my 2 primary systems until this issue is resolved.

Here's the output of lspci.
