stop using sddm or go back to an older version? :( opengl could be due to
changes in LD_LIBRARY_PATH that sddm could be modifying when it launches the
login session. it could be due to ownership of /dev/dri/* or /dev/nvidia*
device nodes? i don't know.
mounting and unmounting could be something else entirely... i'm not sure. could
it be using cgroups, selinux or something else to deny access? i'm not sure.
but what you had before did work.... going back to it should be the easiest
path. :(

dunno. maybe systemd related with the user session/logind? i am unsure how this
might affect opengl access - it shoudn't... :/
