Password sometimes doesnt work

hey guys

i just got a new laptop yesterday and it came with Win11. So i'm dual booting with tumbleweed and kde. . Everything has been going well until today until it started not taking my password at login. I also have i3wm and awesomewm installed. So i just tried logging into i3 like i was using last night and all day today and the login manager tries to take my password. when it does it goes to a black screen then kicks me back out to the login manager again.

So finally when i tried to log into kde wayland the log in manager took my password and started kde wayland. I usually dont use a login manager i usually just use a tty and startx. So im a little baffled by this.

Anyone have any ideas? Im reluctant to log back out in fear the manager wont take my pass again.

If you need more info then please ask away. Thanks
