When launching from console with: gnome-shell --wayland --display-server --mode=classic the screen remains black, the cursor appears in the middle, and nothing else. killing gnome-shell from remote ssh brings the console back, with no error. Curiously, it works (and it's wayland) when i add --mode=initial-setup The Xorg version works fine.
