Black Screen / Empty Terminal when sharing SteamOS /home partition
I tried installing bazzite on steamdeck this morning. Unfortunately after the first boot, attempting to boot into graphical mode just results in a black screen. I cannot switch to another TTY using Ctrl-Alt-F2, but Ctrl-Alt-Delete still triggers a reboot. By modifying the grub boot commands I can boot to text mode and login to extract logs. If I disable autologin and run
sudo systemctl start sddm.service I can see the login screen and choose various options, but trying any of the Plasma options still results in the above symptoms. The most concerning log entry that seems to occur right when the symptoms occur is: fedora systemd-coredump[4906]: Process 4903 (kwin_wayland_wr) of user 1000 dumped core.12 replies

Consistent KDE Compositor Crash on Bazzite nvidia stable (both X11 and Wayland)
I updated bazzite today (after installing it yesterday). I can get to the login screen just fine, but attempting to login to Plasma (X11) and Plasma (Wayland) both fail. On Wayland, the session instantly crashes every time, dropping me back to sddm. On X11, the loading spinner eventually freezes, and switching to another TTY and back again shows just a black screen. Switching to another TTY and looking at
journalctl indicates that the KDE compositor has crashed. If I try starting Plasma (X11) enough times I eventually get a partially working desktop, although the compositor still isn't running so I can't see the status bar.
I've rolled back for the time being, which seems to have fixed the issue. Is there a tracking bug that matches the problem I have? There seems to be a lot of issues with the new NVidia drivers, but I'm not sure which one I'm experiencing.6 replies
