Every time I use any SDDM theme I get a black screen with a cursor and can't login or anything else. I then have to boot into a live usb like fedora or POP go into the /user/share/sddm/themes and delete whatever theme I tried to use so that it goes back to the default theme. this happens regardless of the theme I use. The themes that come with the KDE plasma 6 install. it happens on my laptop and my desktop computers both running Arch. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. add any theme 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT everything works fine until the next boot and I just get a black screen with a _ in the top right corner and the cursor and it just stays stuck like that. I am using an HP Pavilion Desktop TP01-2xxx, Kernel: 6.8.7-arch1-1 DE: Plasma 6.0.4 Theme: Breeze-Dark [GTK2], Breeze [GTK3] Icons: Gruvbox [GTK2/3] CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics (12) @ 3.900GHz GPU: AMD ATI Radeon Vega Series / Radeon Vega Mobile Series Memory: 4859MiB / 11292MiB The laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T560 with an NVIDIA GPU and the hardened kernel everything else is the same
