gdm3 (42.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
In Debian 11, gdm3 provided a desktop session named "System X11 Default",
which would attempt to choose a desktop session implementation from
among many options:
- the user-specific executable or shell script ~/.xsession or ~/.Xsession
- the system-wide default for the x-session-manager alternative
- the system-wide default for the x-window-manager alternative,
even if it is only a window manager and not a complete desktop
environment
- as a last resort, the system-wide default for the x-terminal-emulator
alternative
This option's name was confusing, because it was difficult to predict
which desktop environment would result from choosing it, and it has
not been the default choice since Debian 10. It is no longer provided.
Users of ~/.xsession, ~/.Xsession, or a session manager or window manager
that is not already listed as an option should configure a custom session
definition that will run it, for example by copying
/usr/share/doc/gdm3/examples/custom-x11-session.desktop into
/etc/X11/sessions and editing it as desired. Please see the example file
or run yelp help:system-admin-guide/session-custom
to read the documentation provided by the gnome-user-docs package.
