No idea here, logs?
I didn't see anything relevant in Xorg.?.log (neither in messages) and
since there was no kdm which usually tracks all KDE messages I didn't
know where to look. Neither any new log files appeared.
Since kdm is gone, it's now sddm.log in the same place where kdm was.
This is what my log looks like. Yours should look something like it I
would think.

I think I got a complete section of it.
Ah, I remember that one, but no, there wasn't anything related to black
screens.
I believe it was some internal problem with nvidia drivers and plasma-5
3D effects. This can explain the presence of mouse pointer and menus
flickering-through the black screen.
I'll probably repeat that a while later when I have more time. That
first post of mine was too emotional, I like to be on the bleeding edge,
even despite such faux pas. Thanks everyone for your replies!
