So..... You have posted the wrong journal times. ...
Since you booted a second time you'd want -b -2.

You're right.
You got me.
I'm busted.
The old plasma files have been removed from the google drive.
I switched to sddm, re-booted, chose plasma on wayland, and tried to log
in as bill. The screens went black. After a minute, I did the hard
shutdown. After booting up to run-level 3, I logged in as root, put the
display manager back to gdm, and shutdown. I booted up, logged in to
root to do the journal and grep work.
I saved the text of the journal file by doing "journalctl -b -2 >
jplasma.txt". Here's the link to the journal file on the google drive:
"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oGjdw4kzDbJ5Qw8mfRi_jWkB9TUb66SD/view?usp=sharing";
I did some searches. What I saw in the lines surrounding the hits did
not make adequate sense to me. I did the searches again by doing
"journalctl -b -2 | grep -i -n [string]", and then pasted the results
into another text file. Here's the link to the search results on the
google drive:
"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_iqm6DoC4YW3HmyOtQBe1ihggExVmW7T/view?usp=sharing";.
Oh, I forgot to grep for "sddm".
grep -i sddm jplasma.txt
gives 245 matching lines. And
grep -i sddm /etc/passwd
done as root gives
sddm:x:960:957:Simple Desktop Display Manager:/var/lib/sddm:/sbin/nologin
but that was done after switching back to gdm (if that matters).
The times at the beginning of both journal files caught my attention
too. After several seconds pondering that, it occurred to me that those
times are exactly 6 hours off, I'm in mountain time, and this place is
in daylight savings time. So something is not handling time zone
correction properly.
I don't know if the problems start before or after login. My "wall
clock" does not show seconds, and its minutes don't exactly match the
workstation's time display. So it seems best to leave all lines in the
journal file.
