Getting similar results here; With KDM, I can get a login screen, but I
just get a black screen with SDDM (not even a blinking cursor).  Sadly, I
can't downgrade libqt5x11extras (no longer on disk locally, and not
available in the repos) to see if that gets KDE working again.  I'm just
going to have to wait for the rest of Qt to get to 5.5.1 in Testing.
