Bug 508660

Can you provide output of:
`loginctl list-sessions` after login

files in:
/usr/lib/sddm/sddm.conf.d/*
/etc/sddm/sddm.conf
/etc/sddm/sddm.conf.d/*


Then reset this ticket's status to unconfirmed

sudo loginctl list-sessions
[sudo] password for miklove: 
SESSION  UID USER    SEAT  LEADER CLASS         TTY   IDLE SINCE
      1 1000 miklove -     1743   manager       -     no   -    
      2 1000 miklove seat0 1765   user          tty1  no   -    
      5    0 root    -     14465  manager-early -     no   -    
     c3 1000 miklove -     2832   background    -     no   -    
     c6    0 root    -     13898  user-early    pts/1 no   -    

5 sessions listed.

Status Unconfirmed is not available as a status.

as per my reply in reddit......

I dont seem to be able to edit my original post so just to add a little more info.

I added another user, no initial difference to issue. Only I as a user show up in the locker screen.

It is kscreenlocker_greet that is the screen locker program.

If I logout and login, and then lock, switch user now works but only current user shows up, but at least it doesn't hang the whole computer now if I accidentally click on switch users, and I can login again.

Updated script to wait 15secs, logout, and with autologin enabled, it automatically loges in agan as me, and then locks the screen after another 15seconds.

I dont seem to be able to edit previous comments so I had two related posts in Reddit which you might want to look at.
The original link as above, and then this one.

Please don't reference Reddit; we need all information to be here, summarized concisely. The more un-actionable information in the ticket, the less of a chance it'll be investigated and fixed.

I have the same issue in Nobara 42, It appeared after a kernel upgrade and restart, alongside removed functionality of Autostarts. Restart, log out and shutdown buttons close most apps but doesn't actually execute its final task (actually shutting down, restarting or logging out)
