Hey, just installed rn (KDE) and everything was fine till I rebooted, now I just see a black screen with my mouse pointer
Restarting sddm service in tty loads the system again, but what is the problem? (Service is enabled)
Might you be experiencing this issue in Wayland, X11, or both?

Restarting sddm with x11 leads to a black screen with my mouse pointer
Restarting with wayland leads to a black screen with a blinker underline and nothing else
Editing the config file in /etc/sddm.conf
This sounds similar to the Nvidia + HDR issue detailed here (note @joekamprad’s offered fix):
Assuming you can get access to a terminal, can you share system details (will include driver information for your display). It’ll produce a link you can share here, so we can review.

To save some time, you might also share the bootlog:
journalctl -k -b -0 | eos-sendlog
Can I also check, is this a fresh install, or was it an existing install to which you added KDE?

Also somehow its related to this 2 options:
When i use a Login Screen other than the defaults or a Boot Splash other than the defaults it cannot boot, but when I generate the sddm.conf defaults and log back in and config those 2 options on something default like Breeze, boots fine, Weird.
qt5-declarative was missing, after installing it everything works
