service: wayland
|

symptoms: wayland session fails, gdm falls back to xorg, black screen on login, fractional scaling broken, screen sharing broken, remote desktop broken, wlroots crash, compositor crash
|

## Symptoms
|
||||
|
||||
- User selects a Wayland session but is returned to login
|
||||
- GDM or another display manager falls back to Xorg
|
||||
- Screen sharing, remote desktop, or clipboard integration is broken
|
||||
- Apps requiring XWayland fail while native Wayland apps work
|
||||
- Fractional scaling or multi-monitor layout behaves incorrectly
|
||||
- Wayland compositor crashes after login
|
||||
|
||||
## Diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
### Confirm the active session type
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
|
||||
loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID -p Type
|
||||
echo $WAYLAND_DISPLAY
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the session type is `x11`, you are not debugging an active Wayland session.
|
||||
|
||||
### Check display manager and compositor logs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
systemctl status gdm
|
||||
journalctl -b | grep -iE 'wayland|mutter|kwin|wlroots|xwayland'
|
||||
journalctl -b | grep -i 'renderer for'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Look for compositor crashes, GPU driver incompatibilities, and forced Xorg fallback messages.
|
||||
|
||||
### Check XWayland and PipeWire components
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
which Xwayland
|
||||
systemctl --user status pipewire
|
||||
systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal
|
||||
systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal-gnome
|
||||
systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal-kde
|
||||
xlsclients -l
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Broken screen sharing is often a PipeWire or portal issue, not a compositor issue.
|
||||
|
||||
`xlsclients -l` helps identify apps that are actually running under XWayland rather than native Wayland.
|
||||
|
||||
### Check GPU compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
lspci -k | grep -A3 -E 'VGA|3D|Display'
|
||||
lsmod | grep -E 'nvidia|nouveau|amdgpu|i915'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Wayland support quality depends heavily on the GPU driver stack.
|
||||
|
||||
### Check environment and session overrides
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
env | grep -E 'WAYLAND|XDG|GDK_BACKEND|QT_QPA_PLATFORM'
|
||||
cat /etc/gdm/custom.conf
|
||||
wayland-info
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Environment overrides can force apps onto X11 or disable Wayland entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
For NVIDIA systems, confirm the compositor is using a supported buffer path (GBM on current drivers is the expected default).
|
||||
|
||||
## Remediation
|
||||
|
||||
**Wayland disabled in display manager config:**
|
||||
Check `WaylandEnable=false` or similar settings and remove the override if unintended.
|
||||
|
||||
**Fallback to Xorg on unsupported GPU stack:**
|
||||
Upgrade or change the graphics driver; Wayland stability is often limited by the driver, not the compositor.
|
||||
|
||||
**Screen sharing broken:**
|
||||
Fix PipeWire and `xdg-desktop-portal` services before changing compositor settings.
|
||||
|
||||
**XWayland-only app failures:**
|
||||
Treat them separately from native Wayland issues; confirm `Xwayland` is installed and launching.
|
||||
|
||||
**Remote desktop, VM, or game input grabbing is broken:**
|
||||
This is often a Wayland protocol/compositor support limitation, not a generic keyboard bug. Check compositor support for pointer constraints, relative pointer, and keyboard shortcut inhibit protocols.
