Problems encountered when running Arch Linux ARM on Raspberr

I successfully installed and ran Arch Linux Arm on my Raspberry Pi 5. But I encountered two problems. Since I don't have a wired network around me, and I don't understand how to configure a wifi network in arch linux, can anyone help me?

Also, after I did all the preparations, I executed sudo pacman -S kde-applications and started the sddm service. The screen went black. There was only a blinking underline in the upper left corner. What did I do wrong?

For the KDE black screen I wonder if you are lacking a driver? I have only ever used kodi-rpi on mine which uses gbm/directly to hardware. Does KDE require a xf86 video driver? Try asking on themake_clickable_callback(MAGIC_URL_FULL, ' ', 'https://forums.raspberrypi.com/', '', ' class="postlink"') forum.

As to WiFi, there are many options none of which are unique to Arch or Arch ARM.

If you're wanting KDE, I would say use their native network management. If not, I like systemd-networkd + wpa_supplicant.
