GDM crashes after starting
Hello everyone,
I have installed basic Gentoo system. Wifi is working properly, I can login to system and keyboard layout is proper. I have emerged Gnome recently to use as desktop environment. Now I have this following problem with gdm: when I start it nothing happens. If I run it as service I get blank screen with small cursor on top left corner. Only booting system with ctrl+alt+del breaks this state. Trying to run gnome-shell gives error "Failed to configure: Unsupported session type". I checked Gentoo handbook and there was an instruction to remove nvidia drivers. I tried it but they weren't installed. I am using genkernel and planning to use wayland. Display adapter is AMD Radeon R2. This is an old laptop. Any suggestions on how to solve this problem? |
Although I've put Gentoo to pasture, If I remember the deal with my old laptop that I ran it on, at the login one had to select something other than Wayland for session type probably Xorg. Xorg still had to be installed with Gnome to work on my system I typically installed it before Gnome, Wayland would freeze, kinda like what you're experiencing, with the "Failed to configure: Unsupported session type".
