  • I have enabled Wayland on Ubuntu 22.04 as follows: /etc/gdm3/custom.conf I set WaylandEnable=true
  • But when I run echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE it shows x11
  • I read that Gnome disables wayland when it detects nvidia. I disabled this as seen commented out here:
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules | grep WaylandEnable
# RUN+="/usr/libexec/gdm-runtime-config set daemon WaylandEnable false"

but that had no effect.

journald shows the following:

journalctl | grep -i Wayland
systemd[1519246]: Starting GNOME Shell on Wayland...
systemd[1519246]: [email protected]: Skipped due to 'exec-condition'
systemd[1519246]: Condition check resulted in GNOME Shell on Wayland being skipped.

  • GPU: Intel Raptor Lake-S UHD Graphics

  • libvulkan1 1.3.204.1-2
  • echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE -> x11
  • nvidia-smi -> Driver Version: 545.23.08 CUDA Version: 12.3

A few months ago, Wayland was enabled - not sure what changed. Could this be a GRUB / initramfs issue ?
