Summary | 0006827: kali-defaults* 2020.4.6 has set X11 as the default display manager | ||||
Description | I just got the kali-defaults and kali-defaults-desktop upgrade from 2020.4.5 > 2020.4.6 and lost my second screen (HDMI) after the reboot. gdm3 is still the default display manager in /etc/X11/default-display-manager, it's also selected on the login screen, but it falls back to X11 immediately after login. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Upgrade kali-defaults and kali-defaults-desktop to 2020.4.6 and reboot with a second monitor connected via HDMI | ||||
Update: this is not a bug; Wayland is now disabled on startup (trouble with NVIDIA drivers, of course) If you still need Wayland, here's how to get it back: If you want to try out wayland, you have to disable that systemdsnippet and restart gdm:mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/gdm.service.dln -sf /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/gdm.service.d/disable-wayland.confrm -f /run/gdm3/custom.confsystemctl daemon-reloadsystemctl restart gdmMany thanks to Hertzog for the detailed documentation! |

This little thingy has broken my kali whatsoever. Only console. Disabling that systemd snippet fixed the issue. LOL. |
