http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=932787 --- Comment #3 from Chris Ward <tjcw@physics.org> --- Is this because the gdb greeter starts a wayland XServer, and kde and icewm expect a regular XServer ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

However I had a similar problem with hybrid graphics (amd + intel) and "WaylandEnable=false" uncommented, described here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1209347 Patching xorg-x11-server solved this issue for me: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:1Antoine1:branches:X11:XOrg/xor.... You can try this version if you are in the same case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=932787 --- Comment #5 from Chris Ward <tjcw@physics.org> --- It looks like the real problem is that X11 and Wayland servers are not interoperable as far as display managers and desktop environments go, and to some extent for applicaations (LibreOffice causes X11 to trap, for example). Is OpenSuSE 13.3 expected to ship with X11 or with Wayland ? Whichever the choice is, can we have a tumbleweed build consistent with that so that we can wring real bugs out of the upcoming release ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

When I try to log in, gdm returns to the login screen. When I boot the computer no wm works. I can then go to a terminal, stop gdm (systemctl stop gdm), then kill all jobs run by gdm, and then restart gdm. Once I have done these steps, I'm able to log in using the normal gnome session, i3 and "gnome on wayland" still don't work though. I'm running tumbleweed on two computers, and they behave slightly different. On the second computer I also need to kill all gdm jobs after a reboot, but after that I can log in using i3. However, if I do a "zypper up" I every now and then get logged out and gdm get's into an endless loop of trying to restart (which I can only stop by ssh'ing in and killing gdm). This doesn't seem to happen on the other computer I have. Seems to be a Wayland issue? However, if I set Wayland=false in /etc/gdm/custom.conf the above behavior doesn't change. Here are some error message from the log Mar 11 08:27:41 localhost systemd-logind[1634]: Failed to apply ACLs: Invalid argument (repeated many times) Mar 11 08:28:04 localhost gnome-session-binary[2336]: Unrecoverable failure in required component gnome-shell-wayland.des Mar 11 08:28:08 localhost systemd-coredump[2366]: Process 2344 (gnome-shell) of user 108 dumped core. (user 108 is gdm) Happy to upload some log files if needed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The only WM that works is gnome (not gnome wayland, which also doesn't work). Gnome also only works after killing gdm once after a reboot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Here, the first lines are: if test -x /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession; then exec /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession $1 $GDM_LANG fi If I delete the $GDM_LANG i3 starts again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
