Once again, I switched to sddm and rebooted.  In the login screen, I chose 
Plasma on wayland and logged in.  The screen went black. After a minute, I did 
a hard shutdown.  I booted into run-level 3, switched back to gdm, shutdown, 
booted up, and logged in.

I saved the text of the journal file by doing "journalctl -b -1 > jplasma.txt". 
 I then put it on the google drive.  Here's the link to the journal file:
"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HvBJI4RxSqXoAzTwSYtE69iiSQwvXdRo/view?usp=sharing";.

I did some searches.  What I saw in the lines surrounding the hits did not make adequate 
sense to me.  I did the searches again by doing "journalctl -b -1 | grep -i -n 
[string]", and then pasted the results into another text file.  I then put it on the 
google drive.  Here's the link to the search results:
"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KYzKYyoRD36e5X6wbER-1-eIqsqz3EQI/view?usp=sharing";.


None of your logs make any sense.  First off, you should be grepping for 
plasmashell.
But that doesn't matter as there is no plasmashell in jplasma.txt. Also, there 
is no
sign of sddm or a user login.

Booting a VM system here.  (Not using nvidia, but not relevant).  I would 
see....

Apr 27 13:42:58 f33k.greshko.com systemd-logind[678]: New session c1 of user 
sddm.
Apr 27 13:42:58 f33k.greshko.com systemd[1]: Created slice User Slice of UID 
990.

when sddm is starting.  Note....

[egreshko@f33k ~]$ grep sddm /etc/passwd
sddm:x:990:983:Simple Desktop Display Manager:/var/lib/sddm:/sbin/nologin

And I see no sign of a user login other than root.

But now I just realized you said....

I did a hard shutdown.  I booted into run-level 3, switched back to gdm, 
shutdown, booted up,

So.....  You have posted the wrong journal times.  You need to keep track of 
the wall clock and boot times.
Since you booted a second time you'd want -b -2.

journalctl --list-boots

will show all the boots and their relative numbers and start times that are 
currently in the journal logs.
