> gnome-shell[30907]: Failed to create backend: No resources I don't think that's an error. It's just telling you the Nvidia driver doesn't support Wayland (which always gets tried first). In theory gdm3 is then meant to drop back to Xorg in this case (as Seb says). But some Nvidia users (including Laney) have reported that this fallback doesn't work for them:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bugs?field.tag=nvidia So this bug is possibly a duplicate of one of those. Please try this as a workaround: edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf and uncomment the line: #WaylandEnable=false Reboot, and if that fixes the problem then it appears to be a duplicate of bug 1798790. ** Changed in: oem-priority Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: nvidia ** Also affects: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1811668 Title: oem-config fails on Nvidia GPU machine on 18.04.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1811668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
