[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
The closed status is implicit. There are a few different Status values that Launchpad treats as "closed" so I will set one... ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909946 Title: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.

Damn doesn't seem to be a close or delete option.

[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
Daniel I was pretty sure that the problem existed in my home directory. So, rather than go through all the gnome gnome settings one by one, with subsequent reboots, I cleaned out my home directory of all gnome specific settings at once this am, and rebooted and problem is gone - I'm now in XWayland. This would have taken a long time to troubleshoot, so I took the quick route it was a Fool's errand to try to figure out which setting was creating the problem, because I have backed up my home directory for over 10 years continuously, and I had a lot of cruft in there, so it was time to clean it out.I'm going to close this bug now, thanks for all your help Daniel I didn't want to waste any more of your time.

[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
Thanks for the log. This suggests gnome-shell died because Xorg or Xwayland had already died: Jan 04 12:21:10 stephen-desktop gnome-shell[83433]: gnome-shell: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0. So please: 1. Delete all existing files from /var/crash/ 2. Reproduce the crash. 3.

[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
Regarding Item #3: Didn't know /var/crash existed, thanks for the heads up with the article too. I browsed /var/crash, there are quite a few files (18) from yesterday and today. Now none dated Jan 04 matched XWayland, however 2 from yesterday. The more recent ones (Jan 04) mention 'Blueman Applet' only. Do you want both? According to the article referenced, it seems to indicate using ubuntu-bug to run on the most recent files in /var/log/crash — were you meaning that I should do that in the future? Anywho, will touch base in the morning EST. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909946 Title: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.

[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
Thanks Daniel, yes I meant a crash, just different wording. OK Attached is the file with all extensions disabled. If I'm reading the file correctly it seems to be a snap issue with an app not autostarting? Anyway lots of errors but when I scrolled down to the bottom showing the most recent boot up using XWayland, only two errors, relating to a snap launch. ** Attachment added: "journalctl log file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1909946/+attachment/5449337/+files/prevboot.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909946 Title: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.

[Bug 1909946] Re: Gnome Wayland session starts, then quits.
Sessions generally can't quit themselves so this is probably a crash. Please: 1. Uninstall any gnome-shell extensions you might have added, because extensions are the most common cause of bugs. 2. Next time the problem happens, reboot immediately and then run: journalctl -b-1 > prevboot.txt and attach the resulting text file here. 3.
