Hello Albert,
I am running Debian GNU/Linux 11.6 (bullseye) on ThinkPad P1 Gen 3 with
GNOME 3.38.5 and Wayland without any problems.
But I have enabled the `contrib non-free` repositories of course ( cat
/etc/apt/sources.list ).
You can try to login using only the TTY - no graphical interface -.
When your system is up and you see just the black screen, try to press :
ctrl-alt-F1 or ctrl-alt-F2 and login with your user.
After that enable the `contrib non-free` repositories and update your
system. Reboot and check again.
