Anyone else seeing this - started after systemd 226 update. It starts sometimes - most often crashes on warm reboot - cold reboot seems more likely to work. Feels like a threading bug (missing mutex somewhere, or a barrier or something).
Symptom: Reboot - sddm won't start. Log: ddm-helper[4240]: segfault at 14 ip 000000000042965e sp 00007ffdec4eb3b0 error 4 in sddm-helper[400000+3a000]
Rebooting cold - will usually get it running again with no errors.
I seem to have the same problem - sddm hardly ever starts. I've downgraded systemd back to 225 at my system started fine, I will see whether the problem has disappeared completely. Also, I have the following in my dmesg: Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 340 at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c:5269 i915_gem_track_fb+0x129/0x140 [i915]() Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: WARN_ON(!(old->frontbuffer_bits & frontbuffer_bits)) Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: Modules linked in: Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: sha256_ssse3 sha256_generic hmac drbg ansi_cprng ctr ccm msr uvcvideo videobuf2_vmalloc videobuf2_memops videobuf2_core v4l2_common videodev media mousedev coretemp kvm_intel iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support kvm arc4 evdev iwldvm snd_hda_codec_hdmi input_leds psmouse pcspkr mac80211 i Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: libata scsi_mod i8042 serio ehci_pci uhci_hcd ehci_hcd usbcore usb_common Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: CPU: 0 PID: 340 Comm: Xorg Tainted: G W 4.2.0-4-ARCH #1 Sep 21 18:29:42 black-dragon kernel: Hardware name: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
