Thanks for the bug report.

Please test again with the newest Mageia-6-dev1-LiveDVD-PLASMA5-i586-DVD.iso.

Is this bug still valid?

If so, then please give the output of

   lspcidrake -v | grep Card

and attach journalctl-b.txt that is the result of (as root)

  journalctl -b > journalctl-b.txt

Thanks for having given the exact name of the iso :-D

Next time:
* please also add its time stamp, so the content of DATE.txt, which can be found in the same directory as the iso (adding the checksums too is nice)
* please put 6dev1 on the whiteboard

> duplicate of bug 18791 (or vice versa)?

that one is about error 4 in libQt5Core.so.5.6.0
this one about error 14 in sddm

This one was still valid for pre-6RC July 22nd, see attachment 8266 [details] that was added to bug 17995 by Herman.

I doubt this segfault is restricted to Live installs, is it?
