Systemctl restart sddm effect on my main PC (R5 3400G)
Downgrading sddm to version from Fedora 35 fixes login issue. (Sddm regression from latest git) This is still a bug as of Jan 2023. Any update? This bug makes the Fedora 37 KDE spin unusable if logging out or switching between desktop sessions is required. Black screen, normal shortcuts to get to TTYs nonfunctional, nothing works except hard rebooting the machine. Thanks for your time and consideration in looking into it. In case it helps: I am working off a fresh install of Fedora 37 KDE spin and did NOT have the bug at first. But then I started to mess around with SDDM settings via KDE's settings manager and, after changing things a few times and having to enter my administrator password to make the changes take effect, the bug showed up. I don't know anything about how SDDM is setup but it is clear to me that the issue relates to however the KDE settings application interfaces with SDDM settings. Again, everything was working perfectly before I started fiddling, and I only did the fiddling through KDE settings. This issue is not a dealbreaker for me as I am the only user on this machine. But this is a significant issue for some: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-36-kde-spin-no-monitor-output-of-sddm-after-logout/25357/6. Please do fix it as quickly as possible! FEDORA-2023-1a365f606b has been submitted as an update to Fedora 37. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-1a365f606b FEDORA-2023-1a365f606b has been pushed to the Fedora 37 testing repository.

Created attachment 1904351 [details] Example of logo out bug on my main PC (R5 3400G) Description of problem: I recently install Fedora 36 KDE. One bug I noticed is that you cannot log out to SDDM. Upon trying, a black screen (sometimes with a cursor) will show up. The only way to make the screen show after logging out is to go to a tty and do “systemctl restart sddm”. I’ve downloaded the ISO multiple times, installed on 2 different (working) computers, and tried to reinstall SDDM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 36 KDE SDDM 0.19.0^git20220321.e67307e-3.fc36 How reproducible: This was reproducible across multiple computers and ISO redownloads, and USBs for me. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F36 KDE 2. Try to log out from inside the KDE start menu or with loginctl terminate-user Actual results: Black screen, sometimes with a cursor Expected results: The SDDM login screen Additional info: If I type “systemctl restart sddm.service” and than log in, logout works fine until the next reboot.
