Had some info from Guix Matrix channel:
> GDM does wayland too with the option set to #t. I was able to get it
to work going back from sddm, but I had to remove the home folder and
recreate it from scratch, since gnome session was crashing on login. I
had no problem starting gnome on a new account so i figured something
was hanging around that cause a problem even after deleting all caches
and configs etc.
> By “home folder” I mean my user’s directory /home/use

Oops. I accidentally replied privately to dev <at> jpoiret.xyz, not
mentioning 57589 <at> debbugs.gnu.org. I hope the history can be recovered
from this message.
Josselin recommended to
- check permissions on /tmp/.X11-unix/ (gdm user should have r+w
permissions)
shegeley <at> zone51 /tmp$ ls -lah .X11-unix/
total 0
drwxrwxrwt 2 gdm gdm 80 сен 5 16:12 ./
drwxrwxrwt 6 root root 160 сен 5 16:16 ../
srwxrwxrwx 1 shegeley users 0 сен 5 16:12 X1
srwxr-xr-x 1 gdm gdm 0 сен 5 16:12 X1024
- check /var/lib/gdm/, doesn't have the proper permissions
Hm. That's really strange. For some reason /var/lib/gdm had
"transmission" as user-group. I assure you that I didn't explicitly
do any "dirty stuff" like that permission changing in my config
shegeley <at> zone51 /tmp$ sudo ls -lah /var/lib/gdm
total 0
drwx------ 1 gdm gdm 38 авг 26 21:46 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 248 авг 28 18:37 ..
drwxr-xr-x 1 973 transmission 62 авг 26 21:46 .cache
drwx------ 1 973 transmission 44 авг 26 21:46 .config
drwx------ 1 973 transmission 10 авг 26 21:46 .local
shegeley <at> zone51 /tmp$ sudo chown -R gdm:gdm /var/lib/gdm
shegeley <at> zone51 /tmp$ sudo ls -lah /var/lib/gdm
total 0
drwx------ 1 gdm gdm 38 авг 26 21:46 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 248 авг 28 18:37 ..
drwxr-xr-x 1 gdm gdm 62 авг 26 21:46 .cache
drwx------ 1 gdm gdm 44 авг 26 21:46 .config
drwx------ 1 gdm gdm 10 авг 26 21:46 .local
After changing it was able to launch into GDM, but with X11 as display
manager :( Attached new logs.
