If i start my laptop the sddm session starts on tty7 as normal. then i can login just normal and my desktop(kde) starts.
But then, when i change from tty7 (where my active kde session is) to any other tty and then back to tty7 i get the sddm login screen with my greyed "pre-typed" password. Its the same image as if you login, hit enter , and then the image after that (just before the kde loading screen starts) Problem is, i can only move my mouse and pressing any key does nothing.
