Bug description:
  After update of gdm and kernel gdm3 no longer enables graphics.

  What happens:
  =============
  With and without:
     WaylandEnable=false
  in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
  gdm3 does not switch to graphics.
  In both cases I case the X process running (Xwayland or Xorg) but no vt has it.
  lightdm does work, but barely. It takes up to a minute to get to the login screen.

  What I expected to happen:
  ==========================
  gdm3 switching to graphics in ~20 after boot like pre-update.
