Same black desktop with cursor arrow here after zypper dup and clearing .cache and /usr/lib/sddm/.cache. On Fri, Feb 9, 2018 at 10:44 AM, Frank Krüger wrote:

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

[...] Now some words about the issues of the last week: Mesa 18 (rc) was delivered to the users in snapshot 0203. After a few reports, it became apparent that Mesa is writing invalid cache data on the disk, which after being read, causes issues like white screens and such. The number of boots varied and openQA did not catch this – even though we do have reboots in the system tests too, this was not sufficient to trigger the failures. As soon as the problem was identified, a fix was prepared and published in the update channel and finally in the 0206 snapshot. Unfortunately, at that point, the saved disk cache was already invalid and users were forced to clean it out manually (remove ~/.cache of the user and also /usr/lib/sddm/.cache)

I am puzzled, because with the update to TW20180207 I am experiencing the above-mentioned issue (white sddm, black desktop) again (after TW20180206). How come?

I had black screen with 20180207. Removal of ~/.cache and reboot helped.
