   Dear Maintainer,   
      
   System boots successfully through services but hangs with flashing underscore   
   after last [OK] message of "started libvirtd.service".   
      
   No further progress to graphical login   
      
   TTY 2-6 accessible   
      
   systemctl status sddm shows active (running) initially   
   journaljtl -u sddm -b only shows:   
      
   Initializing   
   Starting   
   Logind interface found   
      
   Main workaround was booting into older kernel 6.12.63 works perfectly   
   Forcing DisplayServer=x11 does nothing   
      
   Expected: SDDM login screen appearing   
      
   Observed: Stuck flashing underscore post-libvirtd, no GUI   
      
   Steps to reproduce:   
   Boot with problematic kernel   
   Observe boot messages reach libvirtd OK   
   Flashing underscore present
