I am using XPS 13 9360, it happens often that the login session goes without wayland.
Here is the log I got from running journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell Dec 15 12:45:45 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[883]: Failed to apply DRM plane transform 0: Permission denied Dec 15 12:45:45 cico-XPS-13-9360 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[883]: (EE) Dec 15 12:45:45 cico-XPS-13-9360 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[883]: Fatal server error: Dec 15 12:45:45 cico-XPS-13-9360 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[883]: (EE) wl_drm@4: error 0: authenicate failed Dec 15 12:45:45 cico-XPS-13-9360 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[883]: (EE) Dec 15 12:45:46 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[883]: X Wayland crashed; aborting Dec 15 12:45:47 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/main.js 315]: reference to undefined property "MetaStage" Dec 15 12:45:47 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/layout.js 221]: reference to undefined property "MetaWindowGroup" Dec 15 12:45:47 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/osdMonitorLabeler.js 59]: reference to undefined property "MetaDBusDisplayConfig Dec 15 12:45:48 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/slider.js 38]: reference to undefined property "CallyActor" Dec 15 12:45:48 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/tweener/tweener.js 540]: reference to undefined property "isSpecialProperty" Dec 15 12:45:48 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: Error looking up permission: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.impl.portal.Per Dec 15 12:45:48 cico-XPS-13-9360 org.gnome.Shell.desktop[1030]: Window manager warning: "XF86RFKill" is not a valid accelerator Dec 15 12:45:49 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1030]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/layout.js 29]: reference to undefined property "MetaWindowX11" Dec 15 12:46:02 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1809]: Failed to read monitors config file '/home/cico/.config/monitors.xml': Logical monitor scales must be identical Dec 15 12:46:03 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1809]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/main.js 315]: reference to undefined property "MetaStage" Dec 15 12:46:03 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1809]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/layout.js 221]: reference to undefined property "MetaWindowGroup" Dec 15 12:46:03 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1809]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/osdMonitorLabeler.js 59]: reference to undefined property "MetaDBusDisplayConfig Dec 15 12:46:03 cico-XPS-13-9360 gnome-shell[1809]: JS WARNING: [resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/slider.js 38]: reference to undefined property "CallyActor" -- 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/1724583 Title: gdm3 in Ubuntu 17.10 doesn't list wayland sessions when using hybrid graphics Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gdm3 package in Fedora: Confirmed Bug description: I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 17.10 and switched the login manager from sddm to gdm3.
