SDDM is a modern display manager for X11 and Wayland aiming to be
|
|
|
|
fast, simple and beautiful. It uses modern technologies like QtQuick,
|
|
|
|
which in turn gives the designer the ability to create smooth,
|
|
|
|
animated user interfaces.

|
You will need to edit /etc/rc.d/rc.4 to get this work.

Put the section that refers to sddm before the sections for xdm, kdm

|
|

etc:

# Look for SDDM as well:
|
|
|
|
if [ -x /usr/bin/sddm ]; then
|
|
|
|
exec /usr/bin/sddm
|
|
|
|
fi

Note: The home for SDDM is set by default in /etc/passwd as
|
|
|
|
/var/empty. This ought to be changed to /var/lib/sddm. To do this,
|
|
|
|
run:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
usermod -d /var/lib/sddm sddm
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
when SDDM is *not* running. Do this before installing or upgrading the
|
|
|
|
package.

Note that this is fixed in -current.
