(I know the question wasn't directly relevant to this thread but it's worth clearing up...)

Mir /was/ going to support remote desktops eventually. Just as Gnome Shell on Wayland will (if not already) support them. The functionality might not be complete yet, but that's just because it's still too new and nobody has done the work yet.

Regardless, you always have the option of running other desktop environments with Ubuntu.

If some feature like remote desktop support is broken or missing in Ubuntu 17.10/18.04, please log a bug...

thats not a gdm thing ... vnc and any remote desktop feature wont run

Yes I know. But I was testing under x with 17.04. For me,
X+lightdm+shell+mutter works, but X+gdm+shell+mutter doesn't.


I know Ubuntu will choose wayland as default session in 17.10/18.04. By
then if my vnc session doesn't work I will have to shift to another
desktop environment.
