Hello - I am trying to troubleshoot getting a black screen after logging into the desktop after upgrading from Fedora 42, to Fedora 43. I updated my system with dnf first to ensure it was up to date, and then followed the steps here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-new-release/ in the section under ‘Upgrading to the next Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop release.’ Upon rebooting, I logged in and was met with a black screen only the mouse cursor, but am able to move the mouse to the top left and see the virtual desktop icons and Overview which is just a black desktop screen (Settings, Screen Edges, top left is set to ‘Overview’) .
I have confirmed it is not this issue: Fedora 43 KDE sometimes boots to a black screen - as I do indeed get a login screen normally, and am able to log in, so I do not believe it is the plymouth handoff to ssdm. I have also looked at Black Screen after Login Screen - Fedora 41 KDE and [Wayland] After installing Nvidia drivers, screen immediately turns black after logging in with white cursor visible - #12 by badmagician which sounds/looks similar, but are about previous versions anyway
I have additionally disabled the rhgb section in grub, in order to both confirm it is not that, and also facilitate getting back into the previous still-functional kernel ( Linux 6.19.14-108.fc42.x86_64 ). Inspecting journalctl, it seems like there are some dbus issues, as well as one with kwin_wayland ?

I believe it may have to do with the graphics drivers? I have:
- Created a new user from a vtty, shut down, and relogged in as the new user. Same issue, which I believe confirms nothing in user-space is the issue.
- Booted from a live usb, which would confirm not a software-parsing-my-hardware issue, like issues I’ve seen with various monitor configs?
- Additionally, using the previous kernel still works, although curiously, running inxi or fastfetch lists the “current distro” as (Fedora 43), just… using the fc42 kernel? I admittedly assumed that kernels and distros were backward incompatible, i.e., couldn’t load one labeled fc42 while being on the Fedora 43 distro.

I can see that the drivers are different:
Functional:
Device-1: NVIDIA GA104 [GeForce RTX 3060] vendor: Micro-Star MSI
driver: nvidia v: 580.159.04
Broken:
Device-1: NVIDIA GA104 [GeForce RTX 3060] vendor: Micro-Star MSI driver: nouveau v: kernel
But I am unsure why it would work on a live system, but not with the update? Also, would installing the nvidia driver for fc43/kernel 7.0..fc43.x86_64 break my currently-functioning fc43/kernel6.x…fc42.x86_64? I would think that drivers and kernels things are connected to the distro, but the.. fc43 running on fc42 kernel makes me think I am incorrect in my understanding, and don’t really want to break the 6.x kernel install by installing something on the 7.x kernel install.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and any corrections with any of the things I’ve said (especially the…kernel/distro/drivers relationship) would be appreciated. I am still trying to “learn to fish” in terms of troubleshooting for linux as it were.
The rebuild seems to have worked after a reboot!
