Comment 12 for bug 1925238

ack. Is yours the "ubuntu" session? i.e. auto-detection, the default,
not "ubuntu-xorg" which is manually selecting "Ubuntu on Xorg" from gdm.
Check $DESKTOP_SESSION. I can confirm that if I pick ubuntu-xorg then
nvidia-smi looks like yours.

I see from `lsmod` that nvidia is loaded - apparently that's not enough
to get it to be used though. I would have expected the udev rule
(61-gdm.rules) to have fired here and caused gdm-disable-wayland to run,
so that I got Xorg and things running on the nvidia GPU; is that a valid
expectation?
