MX-21 KDE stalls at SDDM - does not proceed, cannot login

This is a link to what is almost identical to what happened and what is
wrong -
https://archived.forum.manjaro.org/t/pl ... g/54218/17

The repair is at the bottom, in that blog,

I quote:

Got it back.
Had to downgrade pacman back to 5.0.x, remove all pacman 5.1.x
dependencies, flush pkg cache, change to stable mirror, then pacman -Syyuu
--force.
Booted fine, SDDM display now works, successful login, no errors generated,
but not sure if any residual inconsistencies remain.
Also (force) re-installed plasma and plasma-destop just in case any other
undiagnosed zero sized files get replaced.
So far so good, will now try and update to testing again ... :worried:

EDIT :.
All good, but still not totally convinced, had to force update from stable
to testing due to more file conflicts ... time will tell.
At least now I can re-install existing packages, which was failing before."

My screen says:
The current theme cannot be loaded due to the errors below. Please select
another theme.

file:///usr/share/sddm/themes/monochrome/Main.qml:110:9: Type
WallpaperFader unavailable

file:///usr/share/sddm/themes/monochrome/components/WallpaperFader.qml:28:1:module
"org.kde.plasma.private.sessions" is not installed

I used CTRL ALT F3 to get a TTY and can enter stuff, but I know almost
nothing.

How do I fix my problem - the red text,
