Thanks - I switched to Ubuntu on wayland - logged in and it kicked me out
to the login screen again.

Also - HOW would I do this on command line ?

apt list --installed  |grep -i wayland
gnome-session-wayland/focal,now 3.36.0-2ubuntu1 all [installed]
libwayland-bin/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libwayland-client0/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libwayland-cursor0/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libwayland-dev/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libwayland-egl1/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libwayland-server0/focal,now 1.18.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
wayland-protocols/focal,now 1.20-1 all [installed,automatic]
xwayland/focal-updates,now 2:1.20.11-1ubuntu1~20.04.2 amd64

Looks like its installed.

Thanks
