Output of  journalctl  --unit=sddm.service

I am having problems with login on plasma wayland. I notice this a few weeks ago, I was kinda lazy trying to report this bug. 

Step to reproduce

1. start sddm login screen
2. select plasma wayland
3. validate password.

Result

4. the device returns to the same sddm login screen as seen in step 1.

Desired result. 

Access to plasma wayland

Other 

Xorg plasma desktop still seems to work and I did change my wifi card to from bcm to intel.


I have attach the complete journctl log for sddm.service. Note, all wayland login attempts are unsuccessful.



$lsb_release  -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: neon
Description:    KDE neon Developer Edition
Release:        16.04
Codename:       xenial


The device is up to date with neon dev patches.

I apologize if the tags are incorrect since I cannot find an sddm tag

Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2016-12-12 17:28:09 UTC 
Given the output I don't see anything which would explain it.

Do you have all KWin packages installed?
Comment 4 idoitprone 2016-12-12 18:38:43 UTC 
I do not think I have all the kwin packages.

I am not sure where to look
Comment 5 idoitprone 2016-12-12 18:43:57 UTC 
I do find this quite odd because wayland was working like expected. First, plasma fails to login after a few attempts. Now, it just always fails to login. I do not know any pattern of the successes and failure of sddm login

I forgot the word starts

Comment 9 Martin Flöser 2016-12-12 19:53:30 UTC 
Seems the relevant packages are installed.

Can you check .xsession-errors?

xsession error file
Comment 11 idoitprone 2016-12-13 08:31:12 UTC 
I decided to reinstall kde neon dev edition, since I nuke the install during the time between I posted the xsession errors and now.

I cant reproduce the bug anymore. I wonder how it became a configuration issue.

Martin Graslin thank you for your time. I think I put the wrong tag since it should be kcm_sddm
