When I get to SDDM I can only log in as root, when I attempt to log in as my normal user account i find in journalctl
Auth: sddm-helper exited successfully
Greeter Stopped.
Auth: sddm-helper exited with 1 //this line is not present when logging in as root
In the past I’ve had black screens when logging in and deleted the session file to fix. This time the screen is not turning to black, my ~/.cache/sessions has been empty, tried renaming xfce4’s cache and config folders (when attempting to log in new ones were NOT made), and I’ve renamed Xauthority and ICEauthority files.
This began after I did a regular update, changed no system files, and installed nothing new since the last update. Timeline wise: 1) updated from tty while logged in, 2) used the PC, 3) rebooted, 4) started a GUI application (among other things), 5) failed to restart the GUI application, 6) immediately rebooted, 7) no more logging in
