I installed KDE Plasma alongside my default XFCE desktop environment but when I’m trying to login, I’m getting a black screen & after sometime, I’m back at the SDDM login screen.
I used the following command to install KDE Plasma:
dnf group install kde-desktop-environment
I have an Nvidia GTX 1650 mobile gpu.

PS:
Update #1 (2025.01.14):
I’m avail to log into KDE Plasma if I disconnect the External Monitor. When I’m reconnecting the HDMI after logging into KDE Plasma, both the monitors (builtin & external) are turning black & I get back to the SDDM login screen after a few seconds.
I’ve attached the updated journalctl log above.
I’m avail to log into KDE Plasma with the external monitor connected, if I remove the following boot parameters:
rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau
How can I fix it?
Thanks in Advance!
