Seems like it's a specific bug with Fedora and KDE Plasma.

Can you share what the 10 lines of your /etc/defaultgrub looks like and also the second command?
Black Screen after boot, SDDM restart required on F43 KDE

SDDM showing a blank screen on Startup
Hi guys, I recently upgraded my Framework 13 (AMD Ryzen 7 7840U) to Fedora 43 (KDE) and after I finished upgrading, I would be left with a blank screen (not even with a cursor). I would press CTRL+ALT+F2 to open TTY and would run sudo systemctl stop sddm and then sudo system start sddm, and...

Try running this.
Code:
sudo grubby --remove-args="rhgb" --update-kernel=ALLThis results in:
- The screen with the spinning icon and the Fedora logo;
- A lot of lines of what-I-think-are-commands-or-logs being shown;
- Black screen, which can be resolved with
sudo systemctl restart sddm
You can just add it back then, by running this.
Then just try to use the workaround on the other link I shared.
Then added the following snippet at the top.
Then reboot.
Code:
sudo grubby --args="rhgb" --update-kernel=ALLThen just try to use the workaround on the other link I shared.
Code:
sudo systemctl edit sddm.serviceThen added the following snippet at the top.
Save it and then run this.
Code:
sudo systemctl daemon-reloadThey're discussing something that sounds similar to your issue as well, be sure to read through both links as well, try what's suggested in the first link and then also read through the second link to see what else you could try.

Alright...and with that done, and a few more reboots, Fedora is loading smoothly
I've installed some programs, and am doing more things. I think I can call this solved, so let me update the thread after I post this
Which leaves one final, very important question:
@f33dm3bits , I can see that you like to be f3d bits. How do you like your bits served, and how do you like your bits being f3d to y0u?
In other words: THANK YOU :hug:
And thank you to @dos2unix too!

There is, indeed.

Glad to have helped you come to a solution. Hopefully they will fix this bug soon for people who do new installations.

Is there any clear fix to this? I am using an RTX 5060ti and Intel I5 14400f Fedora 43, I keep installing it then after I install a few programs it does exactly this, I tried not installing any updates or drivers but it still keeps showing a blank black screen
Sorry if the fix is obvious in this conversation somewhere I just cant find it.
