UPDATE 2: To test the update behaviour, I did another new offline installation of Zorin OS 17.1 Core r2 on my laptop, with the NVIDIA 550.67 drivers pre-installed and software updates disabled. Everything worked correctly and it defaults to Xorg as before, no surprises here.
However, after installing all the latest updates from the Software Updater on this newly-installed system (including the update to the NVIDIA 550.107.02 drivers) and rebooting, it automatically switches to the Wayland session by default where this error happens again. In other words, I can confirm that if the user previously installed the earlier version of the NVIDIA 550.67 drivers on the default Xorg session, the NVIDIA 550.107.02 package update will switch them to Wayland automatically. This is assuming they never previously switched between Xorg and Wayland sessions manually at the login screen. As a result, it seems that this issue affects existing Ubuntu 22.04 users with NVIDIA cards, as well as new users. Apologies for my numerous comments here, I wanted to give you as much context as possible about the error upfront. However, if you would like any more information from me when troubleshooting this issue, feel free to let me know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2080282 Title: Wayland is chosen as the default for Nvidia on Jammy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/2080282/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
