Package: gdm3
Version: 3.24.2-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When I choose "Gnome on Xorg" as current session, after logging in,
"GNOME on Xorg" session always uses Xwayland instead of X.
I've noticed that we need to uncomment the following entry in
/etc/gdm3/daemon.conf in current situation.
[daemon]
# Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
WaylandEnable=false
But it is just a workaround. It is not suitable configuration to switch other
session.
Are there any proper solution without above workaround?

You seem confused.
There's a difference between the *GDM* session and your *user* session.
The GDM session will normally always be Wayland, and in case that fails
fall back on using Xorg. The WaylandEnable=false setting makes GDM
use the fallback without first trying Wayland.
What you choose on the gear icon at the login screen is what you
use for your user session.
I'm closing this bug report as the bug tracking system is not a
support forum. Please look elsewhere for help on understanding
the system.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
