This happened to me after setting up the kubuntu-ppa backports to upgrade to
plasma 5.5.3.
I am on Kubuntu Wily.
Symptoms:
On the SDDM login, after I enter the username and password, and instead of
showing the plasma desktop, a black screen comes over, with only the cursor
visible.
After a while this black screen becomes responsive to CTRL+ALT+Backspace, which
when pressed now shows up a new SDDM login screen. The SDDM screen can thus
show up 2 or maybe 3 times.
Another symptom is that the kcm module for SDDM was hanging (only when accessed
through the system settings and not directly through the application launcher)
I have an NVIDIA GTX 970 but I was using the open source Nouveau driver.
Different to what others were saying here, changing the Breeze theme (to Maui
or Maldives) did not solve this problem.
What worked for me though was when I switched my driver to the Nvidia binary.
This helped resolve the issue and now I can login, even using the Breeze SDDM
theme.
