Gnome: how to run on xorg

Hi!
I have a standard setup gdm + gnome.
I wanted to start xorg version of gnome but the option disappeared from gdm (I have only gnome and gnome-classic options).

Re: Gnome: how to run on xorg

"Not", X11 was supposed to be completely dropped upstream w/ v49 and will be dropped (well, unless they change their mind again…) w/ v50
All major distros build gnome w/ X11 disabled (the default setting)

Fwwi, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=308543 but that's not gonna last you very long.
