Public bug reported:
I recently did a fresh install of Ubuntu 24.04 using a daily-build image
from https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/noble/daily-live/20240815/noble-desktop-
amd64.iso , after installation the ubuntu/gnome session defaults to x11
and in gdm the gear icon doesn't appear.
AFAIK, Ubuntu should default to a Wayland session after Ubuntu 21.04,
but this is not the case in my use-case.
I tried changing the file `/etc/gdm3/custom.conf` ,by changing
`WaylandEnable=false` to `WaylandEnable=true` but that didn't change
anything.
When , logging in the gear icon tries to appear but then disappears
possibly indicating a crash(?)
