[Bug 1724583] Re: gdm3 doesn't list wayland-based sessions on Intel® HD Graphics 530 (Skylake GT2)

2017-10-19 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Thanks. In that case this is not a bug. NVIDIA disables KMS support by
default so Wayland sessions will be missing.

If you want to try Wayland with the proprietary NVIDIA driver then I
believe you need to add:

  nvidia-drm.modeset=1

to your kernel command line...

Also, hybrid support in Gnome is supposedly coming very soon:

  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-
list/2017-October/msg00013.html

So it should work in Ubuntu 18.04.

[Bug 1724583] Re: gdm3 doesn't list wayland-based sessions

2017-10-19 Thread Martin Vysny
I have switched to the Hybrid mode. Now the only session available is
the Xorg-based session; About dialog shows that the Intel® HD Graphics
530 (Skylake GT2) is now being used. Could it be that it is not
compatible with Wayland?

Anyway, attaching the lspci -k of the Hybrid mode. In the hybrid mode,
the Intel graphics is now available:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06)
Subsystem: Lenovo HD Graphics 530
Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: i915

I actually have a nvidia card, and since I switched to Discrete mode in
BIOS, Wayland session works properly; moreover it seems to be working on
top of Nouveau (the About dialog says that Graphics is NV117).

2017-10-18 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Confirmed. For me this bug happens with Radeon cards (using the 'radeon'
kernel module).

And also confirmed this is not a duplicate of bug 1723577. I was trying
to reproduce bug 1723577 when I encountered this one instead.

Can you please provide output from this command?;

  lspci -k

If you happen to have an nvidia card instead then this bug would become
invalid. Because the nvidia driver is known to only support Xorg
sessions by default. If you have a radeon card though, then this is a
new issue which I can confirm.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1723577
   Artful won't start with Wayland activated (AMD?)

** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu)

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1723577 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723577

Solved! I went to BIOS and switched the Video card setting from Hybrid
to Discrete. Now gdm3 offered the wayland option (or, rather, both
"Ubuntu" and "Ubuntu on Xorg"). I now run Wayland as confirmed by
env|grep wayland:

XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland

I believe that nouveau driver is actually being used, so I need to look
into the possibility to force Intel, to achieve better support.

Anyways, it seems that Hybrid mode won't pass gdm3 validation routines
and it disables Wayland support; switching to Discrete solves the issue.
