Well that confirmed that. Yeah, wayland is either modesetting or nouveau drivers for Nvidia hardware depending on what is supported currently. Just enable the standard OpenGL rendering agent for your desktop, if it offers it for Xorg if you use the Nvidia driver. Wayland is best used on AMD/ATi or Intel based hardware.

That's the thing. I am not interested in wayland as of now. I'm talking about regular Gnome and not being able to log into it through GDM. Regular Gnome starts fine through startx.
