Commit message

Remove revert_nvidia_wayland_blacklist.patch

That patch was removing the upstream fix for LP: #1705369. And the bug
which the patch was meant to solve doesn't seem to exist any more. If it
did still exist then it should probably be solved in a different way
anyway.

Now Nvidia desktops with multiple GPUs get a working login screen.

Closes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705369

Description of the change

Separately I am also pursuing a fix to mutter!625 upstream. If that fix lands then this one won't be required. Although it doesn't hurt if both land...

I indeed can't reproduce the issue anymore in eoan, with the patch removed. Let's merge this then, thanks!

35-Subject: Revert nvidia from wayland blacklist
36-
37-With some nvidia hardware using binary driver, if gdm GNOME Shell
38-instance is running under Xorg, after logged in, turn into an infinite
39-restart CPU loop, spiking processor usage to 100%.
40-This is due to an invalid paint context.
41-As on ubuntu, our main user session is using Xorg, having GDM using
42-Wayland is fine, as checked with usptream. So, we can revert nvidia from
43-the blacklist for now.
