> However, in that case GDM/Gnome-Shell forgets about Wayland apparently, as the classical X cursor is shown while it loads, and there is no cog wheel to select the session type, and after logging in we are indeed in X11 Mutter
When GDM hides Wayland, it is because it has tried to start a Wayland session but failed; after failing, it falls back to Xorg. So presumably, that would indicate that you managed to reproduce an issue where Xwayland fails to start because of /tmp/.X11-unix and brings down the Wayland session altogether. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2069564 Title: [SRU] gnome-shell crashed with SIGTRAP in meta_wayland_compositor_new() from meta_context_start() from main() ["Failed to start X Wayland: Directory \"/tmp/.X11-unix\" is not writable"] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2069564/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
