Package: gnome-session
Version: 3.14.0-2
Severity: important
Gdm is my login screen.
Choosing "Gnome under Wayland" -> login -> black screen for ~ 3 second ->
return to gdm
After on such an attempt, I want to login to standard gnome-shell, then again:
black screen for ~ 3 second -> return to gdm
The second try works.
The laptop is an Acer Aspire 5755G, it has an Intel onboard graphics and Nvidia
GT 430 M GPU.
I can start weston-launch from a virtual terminal, so wayland as such works
Other packages that contain wayland in their name and are installed on my
machine are:
libwayland-client0:amd64 install Version: 1.6.0-2
libwayland-cursor0:amd64 install Version: 1.6.0-2
libwayland-dev install Version: 1.6.0-2
libwayland-egl1-mesa:amd64 install Version: 10.3.2-1
libwayland-server0:amd64 install Version: 1.6.0-2
xwayland install Version: 2:1.16.4-1
Thanks for any hints.
