Compiling gdm3 without wayland isn't a fix. It's a workaround, and kind of pointless. It's pointless because the most common reason for using nvidia-drm.modeset=1 is to get Wayland support. I know there are other reasons for wanting nvidia-drm.modeset=1 such as avoiding tearing in PRIME setups. But mostly if people use modeset=1 it is to get Wayland support.
If we can't get a fix from Nvidia then some kind of workaround that runs Xorg as root (like comment #26) is probably the next best option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716857 Title: nvidia-drm.modeset=1 results in no monitors detected by Xorg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1716857/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
