** Description changed:

  After upgrading from resolute to stonking on 10/10, gdm3 will not allow
  me to enter a password after clicking my user.
  
  Password field will either be greyed out or there is no field.
  
  Mouse cursor either stops shortly after or immediately, respectively.
  
  gdm3 crashes and relaunches, but issue persists.
+ 
+ --new info--
+ per gdm3 debug mode, ubuntu session files cannot be found.
+ 
+ gdm3 has hardcoded ubuntu as the fallback session in
+ /usr/share/gdm/gdm.schemas.  When this is not found, i.e. ubuntu-session
+ not installed, gdm3 crashes as below.
+ 
+ Adding FallbackSession=gnome to custom.conf fixes this.
+ 
+ ACTION:  gdm3 should not crash when an ubuntu session is not found.
+ 
+ --old--
  
  Workaround:  use lightdm as DM for gnome.
  
  Things I've tried:
  
  Turning automatic login on - hangs after Plymouth - gdm3 started
  
  Purging gdm3 and installing gdm3
  
  Using gdm-config to disable smartcard / fingerprint
  
  Updating smartcard alternatives to use a password-inclusive variant
  
  Masking xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-gnome, pcscd.socket
  pcscd.service, fprintd
  
  Creating a new user and attempting to log in using GDM
  
  Followed older resolute bugs (https://github.com/ublue-
  os/bluefin/issues/4618, https://github.com/JuhLabs/juhradial-
  mx/issues/67):
