Can not switch to waylan in 22.04

Question

Just updated to 22.04 and read that it now supports wayland for nvidia card with nvidia 510 driver. I've got nvidia 2080 super and I can not see the cog in the right bottom corner on the login screen. Changing WaylandEnabled to true in config file doesn't work as well. Am I missing something?

sudo open /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules

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"

Add # to the two lines like what is shown above (scroll all the way down, both are at the bottom. Save and reboot; original solution can be found here by Pablo Bianchi

tested and works on 22.04 too. If encounter any problems simply un # the two lines.
