Description Christian Hartmann 2024-10-19 05:02:52 UTC 
SUMMARY

Session Settings in /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf for an Autologin X11 Session set through System Settings / Colorts & Themes / Login Screen (SDDM) / Behavior panel is invalid on *first* Apply

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings / Colors & Themes / Login Screen (SDDM) / Behavior
2. Ensure no user / no Session is selected
3. Select user (name) and Plasma (X11) Session, Apply

OBSERVED RESULT
/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf reads:
Session=Plasma (X11)
User=.....

No Autologin Session via SDDM

EXPECTED RESULT
/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf reads:
Session=plasmax11
User=.....

or:
Session=plasmax11.desktop

Autologin via SDDM to user Session

Comment 1 Christian Hartmann 2024-10-19 05:05:52 UTC 
on *first* Apply is incorrect.  invalid entry:

Session=Plasma (X11)

is *always* created when switching *from* a No-Autologin Settings directly *to* Autologin to *X11* Session.
