** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * In Ubuntu 22.04, gdm should use Wayland by default even if proprietary nVidia driver is in use. + * gdm upstream prefers Wayland if nvidia version newer than (or equal) to 510. It same as Ubuntu's strategy[1]. + + [Test Plan] + + Steps: + 1. Download jammy daily build + 2. Install nvidia driver by selecting "install third-party packages.." during the installation. + 3. Login without selecting modes (e.g. "Ubuntu" or "Ubuntu on Wayland" or enable auto-login during the installation. + + [Where problems could occur] + * If nVidia GPU doesn't support Wayland then it will be a problem but it doesn't means this patch leads a regression, instead, the problem should always there as it is if the user switches to Wayland mode no matter default mode. + * This ticket switches the default mode to Wayland. If there is a problem then user will encounter it after the installation which has bad experience. + * However, it's not regression because Jammy is a new LTS version and we decide to switch to Wayland. If a problem occurs, then we fix it. + + --- + [Steps to reproduce] 1. Download jammy daily build 2. Install nvidia driver by selecting "install third-party packages.." during the installation. 3. Login without selecting modes (e.g. "Ubuntu" or "Ubuntu on Wayland" or enable auto-login during the installation.
