Yes.
In syslog I see, e.g.:

I also attached the journalctl output from the last week (I filtered for sddm).

Is there some docs how to trace this down? For a normal programm, using the
debug version running in gdb
or stracing it I know, but for X (display managers/login managers)?

I can try them.
