Re: [SOLVED]Sddm doesn't work

That's not a systemd log and you cannot run sdm as regular user, let alone (probabyl) from a wayland session.

SDDM fails to start X11, so please post your Xorg log, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg#General

Re: [SOLVED]Sddm doesn't work

Fixed by installing xf86-video-intel

Re: [SOLVED]Sddm doesn't work

That's not a fix, you're now running on software emulation!

Remove the package and

grep -ri intel /{etc,usr/share}/X11/xorg.conf*

also teh config explicitly referencing it.
