SUMMARY
Hey there,
I've tried in the past few hours to make SDDM save the rotation of my screens, as one is rotated by 90°. But unfortunately, SDDM just doesn't want to do that. I've tried to synchronize the settings in wayland and X11, but the log in screen always has the wrong orientation.
Am I missing something?

PS: I couldn't find SDDM as module to open this bug, so I opened it here, I hope that's OK.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. rotate display by 90°
2. sync settings with login screen
3. log out

OBSERVED RESULT
SDDM is not rotated by 90°

EXPECTED RESULT
SDDM should be rotated by 90°

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 morashon 2022-06-21 08:11:08 UTC
Also experiencing this issue in Fedora KDE Spin.

I've also attempted to use an xrandr script to accomplish this, placing the script in /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup and specifying the location of the Xsetup script to be ran in /etc/sddm.conf as well as /etc/sddm.conf.d/$CUSTOM.conf with no change in rotation for either screen for SDDM.
