Yes. I just updated one machine to Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS, latest updates.
Now I get a Wayland option at login and Wayland. But programs which use
Vulkan graphics, ones that worked under Xorg, crash with a segmentation
fault. I have a gdb backtrace. Now I, or someone else, has to sort out
what part
So, halfway through 2023, where are we on Wayland working out of the box
with NVidia GPUs?

Title:
Missing Wayland login option
Discussion on Ubuntu forums at
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2486867
suggested simply commenting out all those tests to force the use of
Wayland.
But those tests may be there for a good reason, and forcing Wayland may
result in an unstable system.
This bug has a long history,
Looking at /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules
The conditions that cause Wayland to be rejected as an option seem to
be:
# disable Wayland if modesetting is disabled
IMPORT{cmdline}="nomodeset", GOTO="gdm_disable_wayland
# disable wayland if nvidia-drm modeset is not enabled
Additional system information:
$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
x11
$ ls -l /usr/share/xsessions/ | awk '{print $9}' | grep -v '^\.'
ubuntu.desktop
ubuntu-xorg.desktop
unity.desktop
$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 42.5
So, not running Wayland.
