Can't use Wayland with Nvidia 510 drivers on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

I installed the NVIDIA 510 drivers from the Additional Drivers app on Ubuntu 22.04. I also edited /etc/default/grub and added GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nvidia-drm.modeset=1". Unfortunately, it didn't work. I can't see the little gear icon when I login.

Funnily enough I had 21.10 running before this install and it was working in Wayland after editing /etc/default/grub.

Here is my setup. It's a very recent Dell Laptop with Secure Boot enabled:

In the file /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules
in my case, I just commented the last two one here

LABEL="gdm_prefer_xorg"

#RUN+="/usr/lib/gdm-runtime-config set daemon PreferredDisplayServer xorg"

GOTO="gdm_end"



LABEL="gdm_disable_wayland"

#RUN+="/usr/lib/gdm-runtime-config set daemon WaylandEnable false"

GOTO="gdm_end"

It did work on Ubuntu 22.04 or if still does not work, you can comment something that is related to it.
