I am using Ubuntu 20.4lts(single os without dual boot). After an update yesterday, I cannot log in any more with x11 on my desktop. The only way to login is using wayland, which creates problems for me as it doesn't work for a number of application that I regularly use eg. screen-sharing on discord, vim-zathura synctex, xdotool and many others.
I tried all the usual things mentioned here, change kernels, modify grub, reinstall and auto login on gdm3, uninstall chrome remote desktop however it doesn't work still.
Any information regarding solving the issue or location of logs would be helpful.
Thanks in advance!
