How-To

Disable Wayland, restore Xorg

In Debian, edit /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf:

-#WaylandEnable=false
+WaylandEnable=false

Xorg will be enabled at the next gdm3 login screen.

Troubleshooting

Ctrl-Shift-Enter does not work in Midnight Commander

See Midnight Commander

Windows key or Alt-Tab do not work in VirtualBox

This is also due to security policy in Wayland that prevents application to capture some keypresses.

Only workaround to date is to disable Wayland, and restore Xorg.
