SDDM configuration
==================
-The Debian package relies on the default configuration values and as such the
-configuration file is not part of the sddm package.
+The program as shipped already includes default settings and does not require
+a configuration file to exist. For this reason there is no /etc/sddm.conf
+shipped in this package.
+
+There is an example configuration file in:
+ /usr/share/doc/sddm/sddm.conf
In order to override a configuration value you'll need to create a
/etc/sddm.conf file and set the values accordingly (see sddm.conf(5) manpage
-for more details).
+for more details). If you use KDE, the recommended way of doing this is
+through KDE's System Settings (Workspace -> Startup and Shutdown).
Themes
------
-The theme used by default in sddm is 'breeze', provided by the
-sddm-theme-breeze package, if it's not installed you'll be greeted with the
-maui theme and an error message in the lower part of the screen saying that
-'breeze' couldn't be loaded.
+The theme used by default in sddm is 'debian-theme', which is configurable
+using the alternative 'sddm-debian-theme', this allows a better integration
+of sddm with different desktop environments, such as LXQt or Plasma.
+
+Currently the following packages provide a sddm-theme:
+ * sddm-theme-maui
+ * sddm-theme-debian-maui
+ * sddm-theme-elarun
+ * sddm-theme-debian-elarun
+ * sddm-theme-maldives
+ * sddm-theme-breeze
+ * sddm-theme-debian-breeze
-Sddm embeds the maui theme since the 0.14 release, and is used as the
-fall-back when the configured theme is not present or failing. Also, because
-of this change, the theme is now named as the empty string in the
-configuration file.
+You can easily change the one you want to use with:
-All in all, if you prefer the maui theme, or you want to get rid of the error
-message, you can set maui as your current theme in your /etc/sddm.conf ::
+ sudo update-alternatives --config sddm-debian-theme
- [Theme]
- Current=
+The themes named sddm-theme-debian-* were adapted to have the look and feel
+for the Debian stretch release.
Also, the 0.14 version of sddm drops the 'circles' theme and it will
eventually be removed from the archive. Please use a different sddm theme.
