I spent some time attempting to reproduce on AWS today, using a
g4dn.xlarge instance, which has a Nvidia Tesla T4 GPU, which supports
GRID.

I installed ubuntu-desktop-minimal and rebooted, and gdm started fine
with mutter 3.36.9-0ubuntu0.20.04.1. I confirmed this by looking at the
instance screenshot.

I then downloaded and installed the Nvidia GRID 450.51.05 driver, and
rebooted. The system came up, I checked lsmod, the nvidia kernel modules
were loaded, and the instance screenshot shows gdm running. I then
installed VMware Horizon Agent 7.13.0-17123958 and rebooted, and again,
gdm started just fine.

Attached status of gdm3.service, nvidia-smi and instance screenshot.

I wonder if this is GPU specific? or hypervisor specific, since the
affected user runs on VMware esxi. I will again ask for more
information.

But for the moment, this seems very specific to the affected user's
environment, and not a widespread regression.
