UEFI install is using fallback manager not mutter

[fossfreedom]

Todays ubuntu budgie daily 26th Sept 2019, I am following the UEFI Install test case (no network) [http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/406/builds/200037/testcases/1699/results].

The installer is not themed and it looks like its using the fallback manager not mutter.

Will attach a screenshot

After installation, all is well.

This is a regression - all was working with yesterdays (25th) build

That seems likely - I suggest one of two things

  1) budgie starts spawning gsd-xsettings on demand like gnome-shell does
  2) (easier) modify bin/ubiquity-dm to only *not* launch gsd-xsettings on gnome-shell

are you up for supplying one of those changes? If (2) I'll review / upload for you. It probably looks like (in bin/ubiquity-dm in ubiquity git):

if "gnome-shell" not in wm_cmd:
    gsd += ['/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-xsettings']

just after the bit where we set "gsd".

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 19.10.12

---------------
ubiquity (19.10.12) eoan; urgency=medium

  * ubiquity-dm: Still start gsd-xsettings for non-gnome-shell desktops.
    Apparently budgie wants this. (LP: #1845432)
