Auto-login logs into X11 session, when it should be Wayland
bazzite-gnome 38.20231101.0
I've turned off auto-login, confirmed that my preferred session type is set to Wayland in GDM, and turned it back on again, but after rebooting it ends up logging into an X11 session anyway. Is there some way to change this behaviour?

Auto login uses /etc/default/wayland-desktop
It's x11 by default at the moment due to steam input not working with Wayland
Thanks for the info. I tried changing it but it resets back after each update. Is there a way I can properly toggle it?
When you change something in /etc, it should hold up between updates
Ah true, it is still there. I must have missed it. Nonetheless, autostart still logs into X11
I created a file at with the contents but it doesn't seem to make a difference
Just to clarify - are you on the Deck variant or Desktop variant? Desktop hasn't used this file in a while and relies on the DEs for autologin themselves
It's desktop. I do have it set to Wayland (Gnome as opposed to Gnome on Xorg) in GDM, and being Fedora & Gnome, if auto-login was going to choose something independently of my GDM choice, I would have thought it'd be Wayland anyway :S
I'll have to check if the behaviour is the same on the non-bazzite gnome image
