This may be your problem.....
Wayland session not working with duplicate GNOME entries in greeter Some greeters (lightdm-webkit2-greeter for example) do not support two sessions with the same name [1]. To check for duplicate entries: ls -1 /usr/share/wayland-sessions /usr/share/xsessions Rename the duplicate entry in /usr/share/xsessions. For example: mv /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop.disabled
I tried this first.
As root, I did the rename. Then I re-booted.
The menu had only one GNOME entry, as expected. I tried it. After about a second, I got the login screen again. I switched to the GNOME on Xorg and logged in. I got a system problem and a SELinux alert. I think the system problem is the same as the one I reported in a newer thread earlier today. The SELinux alert complains...
The source process: gdb Attempted this access: open On this file: /car/cache/fwupd/metainfo.xmlb
and suggested doing this...
# ausearch -c 'gdb' --raw | audit2allow -M my-gdb # semodule -X 300 -i my-gdb.pp
which I did as root.
I rebooted.
Same results logging in to GNOME. Same results logging in to GNOME on Xorg.
As root, I put the gnome.desktop.disabled back to gnome.desktop.
The menu is back to the way it was (2 GNOME entries). But I'm still getting the SELinux alerts and the system problem.
I thought it best to check back with you before trying gdm (which I already have) or sddm (which I don't yet have).
