I updated before going to bed last night and shut down the machine, when I got home from work today I booted up and was give a blank black screen with a mouse pointer.
When I CTRL+ATL+F3 I’m given a terminal
Arch Linux 6.9.6-arch1-1 (tty3)
archlinux login:
I’m able to navigate around using the terminal but I’m unable to get a desktop to display. I searched around the internet and found that it might have something to do with:
libdisplay-info
so I downgraded from 0.2.0-1 -> 0.1.1-3 and this didn’t seem to fix my problem.
I even went as far as using Timeshift to go back to before the update, but it’s still not bringing up SDDM. I tried reinstalling SDDM and it still wont work.
Does anyone happen to have any advice on where to look further?
Something to note, I used the built in KDM Plasma tool to switch SDDM themes before doing the update but never rebooted the PC prior to updating.
(EDIT) I also tried to Run 6.6.35-2-lts Kernel and run into the same problem.
PC Specs:
7950x3d
7900XTX
Wayland
KDE Plasma 6.1
Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Upon further troubleshooting, I found that qt5-wayland wasn’t installed for some reason. After installation everything seems to be working great. Marking as SOLVED.
