OK, Alberto on the upstream bug says it is not the same as my bug, because the upstream bug is for systems with only an nvidia card. Mine is an Optimus bug. His point is, I think, that gdm chooses wayland based on the modesetting value of the first card it sees, which in the case of an Optimus laptop is the intel video, and the upstream bug is only for situations where the first card is nvidia, which means it can't apply to Optimus laptops. However, it seemed the same to me because Wayland and nvidia modesetting don't seem to work in 17.04 or 17.10. If I can help at all with testing please let me know.
