majunia28 Guys, since 7.0.3 the Display manager refuse to work on a Solus Budgie laptop.
sudo systemctl status lightdm
● lightdm.service - Light Display Manager
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/lightdm.service; enabled; preset: disabled)
Active: active (running) since Sat 2026-05-16 12:20:41 MST; 7h ago
Should say enabled and running.
Now the mystery is this: why/how could the current kernel break the Display Manager? Find the answer to that and it's solved. Unless there's too many variables? We ruled out Nvidia.
Sometimes on Budgie certain applets added to the task bar will break Budgie/LightDM. This is true for X11 and Wayland versions. Which could be a Budgie thing and not necessarily kernel.
Never used LTS so I don't know why everything works with it so I can't comment there.
Trying to steer you to more troubleshooting/wish I knew the answer. Hang in there, you have a hiccup with something.
