Comment 15 for bug 1724583

Thanks. I know Wayland+KMS doesn't work with NVIDIA proprietary. However, I don't use NVIDIA proprietary drivers and I don't have them installed and I don't want to use Wayland on NVIDIA proprietary. Thus, your conclusion is not right.

When I enable "Hybrid" mode in BIOS, I believe that both VGA cards (Intel and Nvidia) are made available to the system (as shown by dmesg); OS is free to use any of those. Typically Linux only uses Intel and ignores Nvidia in this mode - that is completely fine and that's what I want - to run Wayland on top of Intel.

The problem is that Wayland doesn't work with the Intel-based graphic card for me, on this very laptop when both video cards are visible. Or perhaps GDM3 detects more than one graphic card and disables Wayland support. Or perhaps GDM3 detects Skylake Intel chipset and disables Wayland support. I don't know - GDM3 logs nothing usable to its log even when in debug mode, so it is unclear what is the reason behind disabling Wayland support.

To sum it up: I want to use Wayland on Intel, but GDM3 won't allow me to do so, and it doesn't provide any hints as to why. KDE Plasma on Wayland *RUNS FINE* on this very configuration.
