Public bug reported: GDM 41.alpha can start GNOME wayland sessions when used with the new NVIDIA drivers 470 which natively support wayland.
It would be good to do proper testing of the new drivers in Impish to ensure that most of the users can take advantage of the default ubuntu desktop session (using wayland) even when running proprietary drivers. ## Upstream diff: - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdm/-/compare/3.38.2.1...40.0 ## NEWS changes: ============== Version 41.rc1 ============== - Fix fallback to Xorg at login screen - Fix SessionType in AccountService user config - Reuse VT on log out - Translation updates ================ Version 41.alpha ================ - Allow user session to be Wayland even when login screen is Xorg - Allow wayland user sessions for single GPU vendor nvidia machines - Translation updates ========== Version 40 ========== - 100% CPU fix - Translation updates ================ Version 40.rc ================ - Fingerprint auth fixes - Fix timeout handling for graphics bringup - Translation updates ================ Version 40.beta ================ - xinit script improvements - Build goo fixes - Support systems that boot before the graphics subsystem fully loads - Don't overwrite PATH set by user - Generalize gdm-disable-wayland into new gdm-runtime-config tool - Fail hard if accountsservice fails - PAM integration improvements - Leak fixes - Stop using deprecated systemd functions - Translation updates ### Test packages https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/4667/+package ** Affects: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Tags: nvidia -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1942911 Title: [FFe] Support wayland user sessions for Nvidia machines Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: GDM 41.alpha can start GNOME wayland sessions when used with the new NVIDIA drivers 470 which natively support wayland.
