Can't login using Ubuntu (default) desktop environment, but works after selecting Ubuntu Wayland but ubuntu starts with gnome instead of unity.



Only Ubuntu (default) and Ubuntu Wayland desktop environments are available at login screen.



Edit -



I tried removing gnome-shell but it also removes ubuntu-desktop.
