@Daniel this is what i get now with fresh artful & bionic installs: i can only login with Xorg, when sometimes ago, with the same hardware & a zesty -> artful dist-upgrade, wayland was used without problem.
So is mutter faulty here, or ubuntu-drivers-common or libinput, as the system choose the fallback way (which is wrong: skylake gt2 igp (only)) But setting to 'low' priority might be set higher as wayland is the default now. sudo dbus-run-session -- gnome-shell --display-server --wayland [sudo] password for oem: (gnome-shell:3724): mutter-WARNING **: Can't initialize KMS backend: Could not get session ID: No such file or directory -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1700465 Title: gnome-shell --replace does not work: Can't initialize KMS backend: Could not get session ID: No such file or directory Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: gnome-shell --replace does not work and reports: (gnome-shell:15848): mutter-WARNING **: Can't initialize KMS backend: Could not get session ID: No such file or directory (gnome-shell:16495): mutter-WARNING **: Can't initialize KMS backend: Could not get session ID: No such file or directory (gnome-shell:4910): mutter-WARNING **: Can't initialize KMS backend: Could not get session ID: No such file or directory ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 Package: gnome-shell 3.24.2-0ubuntu0.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-25.29-generic 4.10.17 Uname: Linux 4.10.0-25-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu4.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Mon Jun 26 09:03:06 2017 DisplayManager: gdm3 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-07-10 (716 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release i386 (20150422) SourcePackage: gnome-shell UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to zesty on 2017-06-20 (5 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1700465/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
