    Hello John,

    sddm is the culprit.  Using dpkg-reconfigure if I select sddm as the
    default display manager I get a cursor in the upper left hand corner
    when I should be getting a login screen.  If I use kdm as the display >manager I get the KDE logon screen as expected.

    Getting similar results here; With KDM, I can get a login screen, but I
    just get a black screen with SDDM (not even a blinking cursor). Sadly, I
    can't downgrade libqt5x11extras (no longer on disk locally, and not
    available in the repos) to see if that gets KDE working again. I'm just
    going to have to wait for the rest of Qt to get to 5.5.1 in Testing.
