I am using Manjaro GNOME. I wanted to use automatic1111, but it wasn’t recognising my graphics card (NVIDIA 1660 ti) and wasn’t proceeding to the next stage of installation (the terminal kept crashing when it got to a certain point), so Bing said that switching from wayland to x11 might fix it. I changed the /etc/gdm/custom.conf file to
# GDM configuration storage
[daemon]
AutomaticLoginEnable=False
# Uncomment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
WaylandEnable=false
[security]
[xdmcp]
[chooser]
[debug]
# Uncomment the line below to turn on debugging
#Enable=true
and ran sudo systemctl restart gdm
When I did that, automatic1111 started working, in a sense (it still wouldn’t detect the models or loras I’d put in the models folder), but other stuff broke, in that swiping with three fingers no longer switched workspaces, the Ctrl-C Ctrl-V shortcuts stopped working, and Blender would crash upon opening. For those reasons, I wanted to switch back to wayland from x11, or even getting those features working with x11, I didn’t mind, but the former seemed easier.
I re-commented the line in the above file and ran sudo systemctl restart gdm again, but running echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE returned x11 rather than wayland.
Can you please help, if you can, with my predicament?
It just lets me switch between GNOME and GNOME classic
If you uncomment the waylanddisabled line but change it from false to true then restart do you have the Wayland option?
So instead of
#WaylandEnable=false
Try to use
WaylandEnable=true
Then reboot, it’s what I had to do back when I had an Nvidia card, even though just re-commenting the line is supposed to work sometimes it just doesn’t
Edit: tried to format this better but I can’t get the line spacing to work properly for some reason
Yeah, just now I changed it to true and then I did the gdm reboot command, but the other command still said I was using x11.
