UPDATE 3: I did yet another new offline installation of Zorin OS 17.1 Core r2 on my laptop, with the NVIDIA 550.67 drivers and software updates disabled. It defaulted to Xorg, just as before.
I then individually installed the update to the NVIDIA 550 drivers (from version 550.67 to 550.107.02) using the Terminal, instead of doing a full update of all the packages on the system. As a result, no other packages were updated. Interestingly, it still logged into Xorg by default after rebooting the computer. It was only after I upgraded the Linux kernel to the latest 22.04 HWE package (from version 6.5.0-35 to 6.8.0-40) that it switched to Wayland automatically. As a result, this behaviour seems to stem from an interaction between both the NVIDIA 550.107.02 drivers and the Linux kernel 6.8.0-40 update. -- 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
