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.
