[Bug 1903378] Re: installation failed, but wasn't started (live boot only)

Kubuntu hirsute daily booted on Lenovo V14 IIL i3-1005G1 UEFI+secure boot mode
ISO = http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/20201122/hirsute-desktop-amd64.iso

On my test I only got as far as the Kubuntu logo after the disk checks
at boot.

Attached is the syslog from the boot media.

Last entry is "failed to start KDE Global Shortcuts Server"

Should I file a new bug? This seems to me to be another isssue than the
original bug,

Bug description:
  Intending to explore an unrelated issue with sddm/video-graphics

  daily on

  dell [optiplex] 990 (i7-2600, 16gb, nvidia geforce gt 6600 gt)

  No "Try Kubuntu" or "Install Kubuntu" dialog appeared, instead I got
