Advice/Help needed : Can't enable Wayland on Dell XPS 17 Ubuntu 21.04 ( NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 with Max-Q Design 470 driver)
Hi All,
I have New Dell XPS 17 with Nvidia card (purchased September 2020) running Ubuntu 21.04 ( dual boot with Win 10) I've been trying to enable Wayland according to instructions on multiple websites. I read that Nvidia driver 470 supports Wayland. I do have xwayland package installed as well as EnableWayland=true in configuration file. But, I can't see option in log in "Ubuntu on Wayland" .
Any advises? I saw someplace that if the Wayland option doesn't appear on login, even if being enabled in configuration. It's blocked because of some incompatibilities with hardware. Does anyone with Dell XPS 17/Ubuintu 21.04 manage to enable Wayland? Thanks a lot in advance
