Nomodeset is a workaround to troubleshoot with a minimally passable GUI when normal X is broken. It may have no value here with login failing. If from login screen Ctrl-Alt-F3 doesn't work either, try booting with space 3 appended to your Grub linu line as you would to append nomodeset. Proceeding to boot with that should present a login prompt on 6 vttys, though possibly not right away. If attempted login succeeds, you might try sudo apt-get --fix-broken install, in case your dist-upgrade left something incomplete or unconfigured, such as logind.
