That's an option? How would I go about doing that?

the status on the sddm is that it is working but the screen is completely black. Like i can type in my password and press enter and then it takes me to the desktop but I just can't see it.

I tried an older version of the nvidia driver and nouveau and the issue still persisted on both.

also can you do a systemctl status sddm

here's the output https://pastebin.com/mF9h0x9e

I think this might have something to do with the issue but I'm not sure

sddm-helper[1790]: Failed to write utmpx:  No such file or directory lines 1-25/25 (END)

I did search for the issue. I tried adding i915 to my initramfs modules while it did make the boot a lot cleaner looking, but the sddm is still not rendering, it is there though, I just can't see it.

Actually, I do have a thunderbolt device plugged in, but I have already ruled it out as a possible cause since the issue still persists even when the thunderbolt device is not plugged in.

I just sent an email. hope they will be able to fix this issue.

At first Instead of my SDDM I would just see an after image of what was last displayed on screen. But if I typed in my password and pressed enter, it would let me in just fine. Then after following some suggestions from users in r/Kubuntu I’ve made a bit of progress. Now when I boot up my computer instead of the SDDM being invisible, it now doesn’t load at all, from there I switch to tty3 then back to tty2 and then log in through the terminal. After that I run startplasma-wayland and then I have access to my desktop. The post where all this went down - https://www.reddit.com/r/Kubuntu/comments/1nvreuo/sddm_not_rendering/

Does anyone know a fix? I would like to be able to see my login screen.

Here’s my specs in case that would help - https://i.imgur.com/XtC43zw.png

And here’s my journalctl output after booting and launching plasma - https://pastebin.com/nnGsWebd
