Hello
It started with the update on 12/30. After the update, when rebooted, the greeter screen came up white and blank. If I carefully type in the password, hit and miss, kde would come up. When it didn't I could move to another terminal, log in as user, then type startx and kde comes up. When logging out, a screen asking for password to re-login would appear normally.
The same thing is happening on my Tumbleweed install on the same computer.
I reinstalled siduction (Masters of War) on the computer, same problem.
I'm assuming that the age of the computer, and the fact that it's using the last nvidia card I own, that, and the fact I'm using nouveau may be the cause:
System:
Host: siductionMoW Kernel: 6.1.1-5-siduction-amd64 arch: x86_64 bits: 64
Desktop: KDE Plasma v: 5.26.4 Distro: siduction 22.1 Masters_of_War - kde -
(202212291659)
Graphics:
Device-1: NVIDIA G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] driver: nouveau v: kernel
Display: x11 server: X.Org v: 1.21.1.5 driver: X: loaded: modesetting
unloaded: fbdev,vesa dri: nouveau gpu: nouveau resolution: 1680x1050~60Hz
API: OpenGL v: 3.3 Mesa 22.3.1 renderer: NV94
I've checked the Debian Bugzilla and don't seem to find anything searching under Mesa, Xorg and sddm
Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting white screen only on sddm-greeter screen, every thing else is working perfectly.
Tumbleweed inxi for comparison
