Bug Description
GDM 41.alpha can start GNOME wayland sessions when used with the new NVIDIA drivers 470 which natively support wayland.
It would be good to do proper testing of the new drivers in Impish to ensure that most of the users can take advantage of the default ubuntu desktop session (using wayland) even when running proprietary drivers.
