Hi Roman,
thank you for the information! I have decided to go for a bug report (a
few days ago). You can find all the details (incl. logs, pictures and
videos (links to youtube) right here:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385007. Would appreciate your analysis!
Cheers,
Christian

Hi Christian,
you find a log in "~/.local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log".
After your session doesn't react anymore reboot and log into X
session, where you can read the log out then (in X session it will log
to "~/.local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log").
Before asking again for help you may find a solution already by
looking at the log yourself. I suspect an update of kernel or mesa
might already help you. Also make sure you're using the HWE stack of
Ubuntu 16.04 with updated X.Org.
When this helps, please let us know. When this doesn't help feel free
to ask again in a reply (with the log attached).
Cheers,
Roman

Hello Martin,
thank you for the link and the quick reply!
I definitely use Nouveau:
lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK104
[GeForce GTX 760] (rev a1)
Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. [MSI] GK104 [GeForce
GTX 760]
Kernel driver in use: nouveau
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau
When choosing the wayland session and logging in, only black
background (on the other monitor the chosen wallpaper and some
desktop icons) and a bigger cursor loads (c.f. attached picture);
no interaction with system possible (tried this several times;
sometimes the background one the other monitor does not even
load). I have made a video I could share with you, if you want to...
Are there any logs I may view in order to resolve the issue after
turning the PC off and on again? Shall I file a bug report?
Cheers,
Christian

Dear KDE community,
I just installed KDE Neon Git unstable from September 19th
2017 on may
main computer. I want to use Wayland (because of testing and
submitting potential bug reports), but I can't (after user
login,
screen is black with a big cursor, but I can not interact
with the
session; most probably because of my nVidia Geforce 760
graphics
card).
Therfore, I want to ask how mature Wayland/nVidia
implementation is?
Does it work in general? If so, which driver (nouveau or
proprietary)?
Is there a (bug)tracker?
NVIDIA has an own implementation (EGLStreams) which we do not
support and do not plan to support (more information in my
blog at [1]).
Nouveau should work, though I haven't tested it yet.
Cheers,
Martin
