Description Lucious 2016-11-27 04:13:44 UTC
Description of problem: 

On a fresh boot, since upgrading to Fedora 25, gnome (X-sesison) fails to load from gdm. The monitors go blank and the system is not responsive. I am using the Nvidia driver from RPM Fusion. Gnome loads every time if I start gdm manually.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gdm-3.22.1-1.fc25.x86_64


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reboot
2. Select X version of gnome and login
3.

Additional info:

Work Around:
If I boot into multi-user mode, by adding a 3 to the end of my kernel boot options. Then start gdm manually with:

systemctl start gdm.service

I can login to the gnome x-session through gdm with no problems.

I found the problem.

On Fedora 24 I un-commented the WaylandEnable=false in my /etc/gdm/custom.conf.

That setting was still enabled after upgrading to fedora 25 and somehow it was affecting my login situation.

So basically I added the comment back, and now I can login just fine.
