Very cool, unfortunately it doesn't start here. My first guess would be a
permission issue, but sway starts without a problem.
Here's what I get, and then it hangs:

Can you try adding:
debug {
render-drm-device "/dev/dri/renderD128"
}
to your config.kdl and see if that works?
Unfortunately it doesn't. It picks up the device from the configuration
(visible in the first two lines logged by niri::backend::tty), but still adds
/dev/dri/card0 and the error remains the same.
