Hello there,
After an update yesterday, I started having a problem:
Every time GDM starts, the system becomes unresponsive with a black screen and an underscore in the top left (even changing tty's doesnt work).
I was able to investigate the issue by disabling GDM.
Here are the logs from a boot where i manually started GDM.
From my investigations this seems related to this post since when i install/start SDDM i get the same behavour (graphics working (unlike GDM) but no mouse/keyboard input).
Furthermore, my update did touch gstreamer packages like in that post.
(I don't have any testing repo's enabled)
I have tried starting gnome-session directly but no luck (I have 2 gnome sessions: default and wayland).
Thank you for your time.

Starting GDM with systemd instead of manually seems to have solved the issue, though I don't know what caused the issue the first time (also using systemd)
