** Description changed: + Desired Functionality + --------------------- + Systems using Nvidia graphics drivers should have an option to use Wayland but Xorg should be the default. + + Hybrid systems using Nvidia graphics drivers should use Wayland by + default. + + Impact + ------ + + Test Case + --------- + Create a new user (since existing users can choose their own session). + Restart your system after applying the update. + Select your name on the login screen. + A gear button should appear in the lower right of the screen. + Click the gear button. Ubuntu should be selected unless you are using a system with only an Nvidia graphics card where Ubuntu on Xorg should be selected. + + Remaining concerns + ----------------- + Upgrades may still use Wayland? + + There are some suspend & resume issues with Wayland for Nvidia graphics + drivers in Ubuntu. + + Original Bug Report + ------------------- + I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 on a Dell G15 5511 laptop that have an NVIDIA 3060 GPU. I saw in the last update in the gdm3 package that Wayland will be disabled in machines with hybrid graphics. The question is: In this laptop I can enable optimus to use Intel and sometimes NVIDIA or keep only on NVIDIA (I use this option). So even it's detected two GPUs the Intel one is unused. I think the problem could extend for people with a desktop with an integrated intel GPU and a discrete NVIDIA GPU, since both will be present in the system. So maybe will be necessary to check with more accuracy to check if there are two GPUs, but only one is being used or have a documented option to force the enablement of Wayland.
