Description Alakbarov 2024-03-12 09:57:15 UTC 
On grub, I chose Wayland once and it was used automatically ever since. Systemd-boot, on the other hand, defaults to X11 and I need to switch to Wayland manually on each log-in

I dont see how this setting can be related to the bootloader being used.


Mickael, are you aware of any grub specificity that would explain the reported behavior ?

No, not exactly. The only thing that came to mind was GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT, but it appears we don’t have a bootloader menu entry for the Wayland session, or vice versa. It might be best to request additional information from Alakbarov.

Thanks.

This problem has since disappeared. I would close the issue if that's okay
