-**Root cause chain:**
-
-1. KWin compositor needs a DRM backend to create a Wayland display (→ Blocker B)
-2. `redbear-greeterd` starts the compositor, waits for Wayland socket, then launches `redbear-greeter-ui`
-3. If compositor uses virtual backend, the greeter UI may still try to connect to a Wayland display that doesn't exist or lacks rendering
-4. Qt6 plugin path and QML import path must be correct for the greeter UI to load

-
-| File | Check/Change | Why |
-|------|-------------|-----|
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-greeter/source/src/main.rs` | Verify greeterd waits for compositor Wayland socket before launching UI | Race condition if UI starts before compositor is ready |
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-greeter/source/redbear-greeter-compositor` | Verify `WAYLAND_DISPLAY` is exported and matches what the UI expects | UI connects to compositor via this socket |
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-greeter/source/ui/main.cpp` | Add diagnostic logging: "UI started, connecting to compositor..." | Visibility into UI launch |
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-greeter/source/ui/Main.qml` | Verify Qt6 QML imports resolve at runtime | Missing QtQuick/QtWayland imports cause silent failure |
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-greeter/recipe.toml` | Verify Qt plugin, QML, and asset paths in `package.files` | UI binaries need Qt runtime files staged in sysroot |
-
-**Acceptance criteria:**
-- [ ] `redbear-greeterd` logs "compositor ready, launching greeter UI"
-- [ ] `redbear-greeter-ui` process appears in `ps`
-- [ ] Qt6/QML greeter login screen visible on the display (QEMU VNC)
-- [ ] Text input field accepts username, password field accepts password
-- [ ] Login attempt reaches `redbear-authd` (visible in authd logs)

-### 3.4 Blocker D: Session handoff after successful login
-
-**Priority:** P1 — requires Blocker C resolved first.
-
-**Symptom:** Unknown — haven't reached this stage yet. Expected gap: after `redbear-authd` authenticates, `redbear-session-launch` starts the KDE session but KWin/Plasma may fail.
-
-**Files to verify:**
-
-| File | Check | Why |
-|------|-------|-----|
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-authd/source/src/main.rs` | `start_session()` flow: does it call session-launch correctly? | Authd initiates the session launch after successful auth |
-| `local/recipes/system/redbear-session-launch/source/src/main.rs` | Verify uid/gid drop, env setup, `dbus-run-session` invocation | Session needs correct user context and D-Bus session bus |
-| `config/wayland.toml` | Verify canonical KWin launch env (`KWIN_DRM_DEVICES`, `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`, `QT_*` paths) | KWin session needs same DRM/seat/Qt env as greeter |
-| `local/recipes/kde/kwin/` | Verify `kwin_wayland_wrapper` binary is staged and executable | KWin wrapper must be in PATH for session launch |
-
-**Acceptance criteria:**
-- [ ] Successful login in greeter triggers session launch
-- [ ] `redbear-session-launch` starts with correct UID/GID
-- [ ] D-Bus session bus starts for the user session
-- [ ] `kwin_wayland_wrapper --drm` starts as the user session compositor
-- [ ] `plasmashell` starts (or at minimum, a KWin desktop surface appears)
 
 **Critical gap:** `redbear-full-session` — the script that `redbear-session-launch` invokes for the KDE session — was not found in the source tree. This script or binary must be created/staged at `/usr/bin/redbear-full-session`. It should set KDE session environment variables (`XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE`, `KDE_FULL_SESSION=true`) and launch `kwin_wayland_wrapper` + `plasmashell`. The upstream KWin Wayland service entry (`plasma-kwin_wayland.service.in`) provides a reference template.
