SDDM.CONF(5) sddm SDDM.CONF(5) NAME sddm.conf - sddm display manager configuration SYNOPSIS Configuration loads all files in the configuration directories followed by the configuration file in the order listed below with the latter having highest precedence. Changes should be made to the local configu- rations. /usr/local/lib/sddm/sddm.conf.d System configuration directory /usr/local/etc/sddm.conf.d Local configuration directory /usr/local/etc/sddm.conf Local configuration file for compatibility DESCRIPTION This file configures various parameters of the sddm display manager sddm(1). If this file is not available, default values are used. OPTIONS [General] section: DisplayServer= Select the display server to use for the greeter. Valid values are: • x11: X server running as root. • x11-user: X server running as unprivileged user. • wayland: Wayland compositor as unprivileged user. (Experimen- tal) Default value is "x11". For x11-user you might need to config- ure Xorg.wrap(1). HaltCommand= Halt command. Default value is "/sbin/shutdown -p now". RebootCommand= Reboot command. Default value is "/sbin/shutdown -r now". Numlock= Change numlock state when sddm-greeter starts. Valid values are on, off or none. If property is set to none, numlock won't be changed. Default value is "none". InputMethod= Set the Qt input method for the greeter. Tablet users with Qt Virtual Keyboard installed can set this to "qtvirtualkeyboard" for the on-screen keyboard. Other known values are "ibus" for the Intelligent Input Bus, or "compose" for dead keys support. Leave this empty if unsure. Namespaces= Comma-separated list of paths bound to Linux namespaces to enter with setns() before starting the user session. For example, to enter network namespace mynet created with ip netns add mynet, the value might be /run/netns/mynet. Default value is empty. (The value is ignored if the operating system is not Linux.) [Theme] section: ThemeDir= Path of the directory containing theme files. Default value is "/usr/local/share/sddm/themes". Current= Name of the current theme. By default this setting is empty, meaning the embedded theme will be used. FacesDir= Path of the directory containing face files, face files should be in username.face.icon format. Default value is "/usr/lo- cal/share/sddm/faces". CursorTheme= Name of the cursor theme to be set before starting the display server. CursorSize= Cursor size to be set before starting the display server. Font= Name of the font to be set before starting the display server. Please note that the theme can still override this option. EnableAvatars= When enabled, home directories are searched for ".face.icon" im- ages to display as their avatars. This can be slow on some file systems. When disabled, all avatars will be default. Themes may choose to hide them altogether. Default value is true. [X11] section: ServerPath= Path of the X server. Default value is "/usr/bin/X". ServerArguments= Arguments to the X server. Default value is "-nolisten tcp". XephyrPath= Path of the Xephyr. Default value is "/usr/bin/Xephyr". SessionDir= Comma-separated list of directories containing session files. Default value is "/usr/local/share/xsessions,/usr/share/xses- sions". SessionCommand= Path of script to execute when starting the user session. This script receives the value of the "Exec" setting in the ".desk- top" file of the selected session and runs it. Default value is "/usr/local/share/sddm/scripts/Xsession". SessionLogFile= Path to the user session log file, relative to the home direc- tory. Default value is ".local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log". DisplayCommand= Path of script to execute when starting the display server. The script will be executed as root when General.DisplayServer is "x11", otherwise as sddm user. Default value is "/usr/lo- cal/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup". DisplayStopCommand= Path of script to execute when stopping the display server. The script will be executed as root when General.DisplayServer is "x11", otherwise as sddm user. Default value is "/usr/lo- cal/share/sddm/scripts/Xstop". MinimumVT= Minimum virtual terminal number that will be used by the first display. Virtual terminal number will increase as new displays added. This setting is no longer available since SDDM v0.20. EnableHiDPI= Enables Qt's automatic HiDPI scaling. Can be either "true" or "false". Default value is "true". The XauthPath= option is no longer necessary, libxau is used instead. The UserAuthFile= option was removed, the file is always created as /tmp/xauth_XXXXX. This is necessary for to the use of FamilyWild en- tries. [Wayland] section: CompositorCommand= Path of the compositor to execute when starting the greeter. Default value is "weston --shell=kiosk". SessionDir= Comma-separated list of directories containing session files. Default value is "/usr/local/share/wayland-ses- sions,/usr/share/wayland-sessions". SessionCommand= Path of script to execute when starting the user session. This script receives the value of the "Exec" setting in the ".desk- top" file of the selected session and run it. Default value is "/usr/local/share/sddm/scripts/wayland-session". SessionLogFile= Path to the user session log file, relative to the home direc- tory. Default value is ".local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log". EnableHiDPI= Enables Qt's automatic HiDPI scaling. Can be either "true" or "false". Default value is "true". [Users] section: DefaultPath= Default path to set after successfully logging in. This is also where SDDM looks for programs. Default value is "/usr/lo- cal/bin:/usr/bin:/bin".

RememberLastSession= If this flag is true, LastSession value will updated on every successful login, if false last session value won't be updated. Default value is true. [Autologin] section: User= Name of the user to automatically log in when the system starts first time. Default value is empty.
