journalctl -b while SDDM displaying corrupt screen.

I used SDDM here with my nouveau (mcp79, nv9400) for years on this Macbook 5.1 .

I started seeing corrupt fonts (totally unreadable) or 100% CPU load from sddm-greeter with black screen.

I am attaching output of journalctl -b taken when it was happening.

I could only use my phone to take photo of this issue.
