I've built Metacity 3.42 for Ubuntu 21.10 with Xpresent support, which
is behind a gsettings option that defaults to xrender. When Metacity is
set as the required window manager in MATE with Xpresent set as the
compositor the same failure to bring up a desktop session is
encountered.

I have also built Marco without Xpresent and as expected it fallsback to
Xrender which works with the new NVIDIA drivers and also preserves
compositor support.

** Summary changed:

- Nvidia 510 drivers result in failure to start GUI on GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
+ MATE Desktop session fails to start with NVIDIA 495 & 510 drivers
