[Bug 1632772] Re: GNOME on Wayland does not start from LightDM
It looks like the bug is actually in unity8-desktop-session. It installs /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/45-unity8.conf, which sets session- wrapper=lightdm-unity8-session, which means lightdm-unity8-session is run in order to start *any* session. lightdm-unity8-session is a shell script that's also part of unity8-desktop-session, and looking at its contents, it appears to be buggy because it assumes that any session that doesn't use X (such as Wayland) is Unity 8 and should run upstart instead of lightdm-session. I was able to work around this by creating a file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/00-willmo.conf with contents [Seat:*] session-wrapper=lightdm-session This overrides the offending setting in 45-unity8.conf and sets session- wrapper back to the default, avoiding the Unity 8 assumptions in lightdm-unity8-session. After rebooting, Wayland sessions now work for me. ** Also affects: unity8-desktop-session Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity8-desktop-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632772 Title: GNOME on Wayland does not start from LightDM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1632772/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@johny, I don't recall having done anything to fix it. I think it just resolved itself by some package update or something. Logging into GNOME on Wayland from LightDM as my user works now. But as guest it doesn't work still. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632772 Title: GNOME on Wayland does not start from LightDM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1632772/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
