I found this bug after trying to swap to GDM on ubuntu 15.10. I have overcome it thanks to people working through this. It seems that whatever the `ubuntu-gnome-default-settings` package does seems to help also un-comment-ing `WaylandEnable=false` in /etc/gdm/custom.conf is what needs to be

I am following this bug as I had some similar oddities after upgrading from U.Gnome 15.04 to 15.10. During the install I elected to keep the existing copy of /etc/gdm/custom.conf because I had made changes to the "list users" section that I wanted to keep. Today I decided to replace my existing

More specifically, the critical file from ubuntu-gnome-default-settings is: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/20_ubuntu-gnome-default-settings.gschema.override If you remove that file and update schemas (one way is "dpkg-reconfigure libglib2.0-0"), gdm won't start properly. If you re-add the file and

I found the best "solution" for me was to simply add the latest Mint repo to my sources.list.d/ directory and install the mdm package, which is a fork of gdm, and I've since commented out the minto repo. mdm has worked without any problems for me. I'll switch back to gdm (or not) when this is

Installing xwayland did not seem to solve it for me. Upon reboot, gdm still just loads a grey screen. I cannot even seem to CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to another tty session in order to fix it. I have to boot to recovery, remount as read-write and then dpkg-reconfigure lightdm back to using lightdm.
