Symptoms comparable to bug 271630 comment 0, 

> … black screen with a cursor … 

I struggled to remember where I had seen a workaround. 

Eventually, I realised that symptoms here were slightly different – blank
screens, no cursor – then I found post-closure bug 272297 comment 3, in
particular: 

> … don't have pam_env.so …

After commenting out a line, normal service resumed with SDDM. Notes attached.
