After last update:
“Failed to Start Simple Desktop Display Manager”.
Using RX580 and Ryzen 5 3600X with KDE Plasma DE.
Re-installing SDDM - didn’t help.
Disconnecting my second monitor also comes with nothing - same error.
KDE ryzen + nvidia (proprietary) system prompts the following when update tried.

responding default N fails update. Dependency list seems weird.
I have an Dell XPS 9560 which has a NVIDIA GTX 1050 and I use a CallDigit TS3 dock connected to two DisplayPort connected LG 27UD69P 27" 4K monitors. One monitor is connected with a USB-C-DisplayPort cable and the other is connected with a DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable.
I have had no problems with the NVIDIA drivers in this update with kernel 5.11.22-2 and KDE.
Was expecting problems based on previous reports and had a TimeShift backup ready to go. Thankfully, I didn’t have to use it.
Maybe this can help somebody considering the update:
I have the following setup and had no issues regarding the Nvidia drivers:
LG 27UD58P-B 4K monitor connected directly to DP
Samsung S24D300H 1080p monitor connected to DP with an HDMI adapter
NVIDIA RTX 2080 SUPER using proprietary drivers
I dont think upper- or lowercase matters (although its consistently uppercase on my list, which also uses just defaults), but there seems to be a “-” missing. Afaik it should be “en_US.UTF-8”
I experienced graphical glitches in applications that use OpenGL with my AMD R9 graphics card upon updating mesa to the version in this stable update (21.1.2-0). However, switching to unstable branch and updating just the mesa packages to version 21.1.2-1 seems to have corrected the graphical issue for me. I don’t know if this information is helpful to anybody else, but I thought I’d share it.
edit: Graphical glitches still appearing with mesa 21.1.2-1 even. I was wrong, they haven’t gone away. Ignore everything I have written here… my apologies…
Maybe check in a live-session with a fresh 21.0.6 ISO if you have the same graphical glitches. They just finished building. Links are in the first post of this thread.
