sddm crashing on boot?

I just upgraded Bazzite today and now I can't get into a graphical session anymore. SDDM either hangs or crashes? I can still boot and log in through text mode, so the system itself isn't completely dead.

Rolling back fixes the issue, but I don't know if that's a good permanent fix... My graphics card is a AMD RX 7900xtx Booting either option in grub results in a black screen, but if I boot into rescue and run rpm-ostree rollback, the reboot, I get a successful boot.

startplasma-wayland to start graphical session
Unable to find autologin session entry "plasm-steamos -Way land-oneshot.desktop"
interesting, did you rebase btw. non -deck and -deck image? From plasma change sddm's setting to not autologin

I think I rebased last week because I already had bazzite deck on USB.

Interestingly, it will not let me disable autologin.
