Hi,
I am a bit doubtful,
Regarding the first issue :
- the same issue happened both in my laptop without any kind of dual screen
("mac book pro retina 2013" using intel i915 ) and my desktop HP with dual
screen (DVI VGA ) using nouveau...
-the symptoms seem different : sddm start into the K icon and idle from
there (unless I use ctrl-alt-Fx then CTRL-ALT-F7) I can see this on both
screen. The suggestion make in the previous mail did not help.
-I have no error in the boot log
Regarding the second issue :
- my up to date sid still show this issue today the 7th of january 2017.
Was qtdeclarative updated or not yet ?
- When the panel crashes/freeses I can *also* do ctrl-alt-Fx then
CTRL-ALT-F7 to restore it in a working state (most of the time...)
Personnaly I found it unlikely that 2 different issues have exactly the
same work around ?
If you want me to test more things please tell me so.
Cheers;
