Hi, I'm not sure this is the correct place to report this as it seems to affect
both GDM3 and SDDM, but since I use GDM3 I'm reporting it here.

Basically, I get a blank screen while resuming from suspend and have to do a
hard reboot. Sometimes I can SSH into the system, but usually not. This affects
SDDM as well, but NOT LightDM, which resumes fine from suspend. Also, after
booting, if I leave the login screen on for some time (without any input from
the keyboard or mouse) I get the same blank screen and have to do a hard
reboot; haven't tested this with SDDM.

I'm on a Dell Inspiron 7405 laptop with a Ryzen 4500 processor.

Thank you for your time.
