Public bug reported:
After upgrade to kinetic I can't start Gnome Desktop under Wayland.
Until recent update to the gdm3,trying to start gdm3 with
"WaylandEnable=true" in /var/gdm3/custom.conf lead to blank screen with
non-blinking underscore sign in top left corner of the screen (with x11
gdm3 working fine). Now the gdm3 starts well, but trying to log into
"Ubuntu on Wayland" leads to the blank screen with the underscore. The
computer remains bootable, no obvious error messages are IMHO present in
/var/log/syslog, dmesg . After around a minute the PC comes back to the
gdm3. The PC can boot into "Ubuntu" which means X11.
There are lots od "modeset errors" related to the nvidia driver. Those
were present in 22.04, and AFAIK are just a nuissance.
In 22.04 Gnome desktop via Wayland worked fine, so this is a regression.
I tried to log in to a new user with empty $HOME, but this changes
nothing.
I am happy to attach additional logs upon request.
The attached syslog is for a single boot of the computer that:
- was started with WaylandEnable=true
- was booted into Ubuntu on Wayland (time 14:45:13 in the file), experiencing
blank screen
- at 14:46:50 the timout is triggered and "gnome desktop through Wayland"
shuts itself down
It seems the line:
Oct 9 14:46:45 testosteron systemd[22999]: org.gnome.Shell@wayland.service:
start operation timed out. Terminating.
is very closely tied to my issue, but google does not find anything
similar, so I was unable to investigate further.
