sudo systemctl stop gdm.service
startx /usr/bin/gnome-session

Here is the relevant part of "journalctl -b":

I get these two errors:

Sep 21 15:08:22 archonic systemd-coredump[515]: Process 445 (gnome-shell) of user 120 dumped core.

It seems as though gdm tries to run gnome-session with wayland, but this is might be not possible, since I use the official nvidia drivers. Does anybody else have this problem? Is there a way to fix this?

Re: [SOLVED] gdm fails to start gnome-session since the last update

Yes, I got this problem as well.

Edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf and uncomment

WaylandEnable=false

Re: [SOLVED] gdm fails to start gnome-session since the last update

Thanks for the answer. I cannot test it right now, because I downgraded sysemd because of another bug. But I think, this will solve the issue, so I mark the thread as solved.
