Public bug reported: After update of gdm and kernel gdm3 no longer enables graphics.
What happens: ============= With and without: WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf gdm3 does not switch to graphics. In both cases I case the X process running (Xwayland or Xorg) but no vt has it. lightdm does work, but barely. It takes up to a minute to get to the login screen. What I expected to happen: ========================== gdm3 switching to graphics in ~20 after boot like pre-update.
