What happened?

My server is windows and the client is ubuntu22.04. When my mouse moves from windows to ubuntu, it immediately jumps back to the windows screen. The log shows that entering screen and leaving screen occur almost simultaneously. Why?
But if my client is windows and the server is ubuntu22.04, there will be no problems.

Probably because Wayland support is not enabled yet, you could try adding:

WaylandEnable=false

to /etc/gdm3/custom.conf (you'll lose any benefits of using Wayland, if you don't know of any you probably don't care).
