I happily use Gnome 3.38.5 on Debian 11.
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
shows wayland
qemu does not grab the Super key for a macOS guest, and I’ve read that switching to Xorg could help.
Therefore I would like to switch between Wayland and Xorg.
However, there is no cogwheel at the login screen, which others report to offer options like GNOME
,GNOME on Xorg
, etc.
Why is the cogwheel missing, or how do I switch without it?
