(exploring sddm & video issue primarily, using hirsute for comparison)
booting kubuntu daily (hirsute) & it reports "Installation failed - KDialog \n The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again"
session is horrid; graphic glitches are a PAIN. mainly black triangular shapes that appear to flash/move as I do anything (esp. move mouse-pointer).. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-hwe...
I could use this box with this issue; quickly giving me a headache with all the flashing...
i spent some time in terminal (black background was less annoying than bright colors) filing bug, firefox (bug mostly filled in elsewhere), then a few logouts, login again..
I did not do much else; the screen flashing/glitches quickly made me feel slightly ill/headache-y so I shutdown box. no real issues (ignoring graphics)
