I am sorry. I tend to agree with others. A lot of us are endearing folks. And when I say us I mean people already exposed and using a distro. Only a portion of us though, so the rest will get fed up.

99% of new users will encounter this and just can the distro guys. The majority would not even fool with it long enough to realize there's the non-productive work around of pressing ctrl+c twice every time. Most will just see it fails at something really basic and wonder what else it fails at that they don't see yet, or just get frustrated and move on.

A basic function like this being broke should be a huge priority. But from what I am reading here it has carried on into the next LTS version without a fix as well...

Daniel, I don't see an option to select Ubuntu on Wayland on the login screen? I will have to figure that out. I haven't moved to 20.04 yet. Since the bug was still present I didn't get motivated to.
