Computer hangs completely right after logging in (Wayland)

I am having an issue with bazzite-nvidia-stable KDE wayland. Everything boots up fine, and when I log in I get a completely black screen and my computer becomes 100% unresponsive. I've tried swapping displayport inputs and things but nothing works. I can't type ctrl+alt+f2 to get terminal, it's just completely broken. This also happens from a bootable usb drive. I've tried with both ventoy and fedora image writer. When I use X11 everything seems to work. PC Specs: - nvidia 3090 - AMD 5950x nvidia driver version: 555.58.02

Have you tried using the X11 session?

Yes, X11 works, I have that in the OP I want to use wayland for HDR + VRR

The problem is Nvidia HDR under KDE Wayland You'll have to wait for it to be fixed, it's not our bug

That crashes the entire PC? I had just rebased from maybe last april and it was working fine before i did that

yep you can fix it by forcing HDR off

I'd even disable HDR to get wayland to work, but i dont know how to do it via my X11 session

I'll see if I can find the steps

Just to confirm this is HDR related, isn't HDR disabled by default from a live USB?

state of HDR is whatever KDE says HDR should be we don't change it

I think in the past it has always been toggled off, but I can't confirm it at the moment from this USB. BTW: Someone else seems to be having the same issue on github https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/1369

Black screen on SDDM/Wayland on first boot with Nvidia card · Issue...
Describe the bug Fresh installation of latest bazzite-nvidia (I believe currently on version 3.5.1), boots into black screen. This seems to be another Wayland <-> Nvidia compatibility problem...

Also seeing this, which might indicate it's a KDE issue https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=488941 I changed that json file in the .config file and it didn't fix it. changed it to turn HDR off

have you tried disabling hdr on the screen/screens and rebooting?
Untiltable
Untiltable4mo ago
I can try that. I wasn't able to get to any settings menu while it's broken because it's just looking for signal My monitor doesn't have the option to disable HDR
