SDDM Black Screen w/cursor
By now this is a known issue, but I think it's worth opening regardless.
I wasn't the only one to experience this,and it seems to be an issue specifically with nvidia (apparently not nvidia exclusive), but every so often (pretty much every other boot), whenever it reaches the point where SDDM would load and allow me to login, it shows a black screen with only the cursor being displayed.
Switching from Wayland to X11 didn't seem to fix this in my experience, as I had rebooted whilst using the Xorg session and still got the issue. Whenever this happens it forces me to push the shutdown button (although not hold as SDDM is respectful and goes on its own) and shut it down and turn it back on, which fixes it.
I've noticed in normal boots that work that it does still show the black screen with cursor, but only for a second before the wallpaper and the rest of the SDDM components show up and enable me to login, so this leads me to believe it might be somewhere in the middle of SDDM initialization?
In any case, I'll leave it open for discussion and I'm happy to provide any further info or test suggestions.
