I quickly checked the changelog between 250.2 and 250.3 [1] but didn't 
find anything which might appear relevant (the closest maybe being 
19fbd7764d)

In a next step, I tried lightdm in VM and it came up just fine with 
250.3-1 (see attached screenshot). It is thus likely that this issue is 
specific to your system.

I'm thererfor marking the issue as unreproducible for now.

I guess your best bet is to run git bisect to find the offending commit.

Regards,
