NEW: x11/sddm (X11 and Wayland display manager)
New version attached for KDE Plasma users. This version setup's everything
properly for KDE Plasma:
data/scripts/Xsession:
+if [[ $@ == *startplasma-x11* ]]; then
+ # DEBUG
+ #export QT_LOGGING_RULES="*=true"
+
+ #export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=0
+ # https://userbase.kde.org/KDE_System_Administration/Environment_Variables
+
+ #export QT_LOGGING_RULES="*kwin*=true"
+ export KWIN_SCREENSHOT_NO_PERMISSION_CHECKS=1
+ #export QT_FORCE_STDERR_LOGGING=1
+ export QML_DISABLE_DISK_CACHE=1
+
+ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=$(mktemp -d /tmp/"$USER"-runtime-XXXXXX)
+ if [ ! -d $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR ]; then
+ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/run/$(id -u)
+ mkdir -m 700 -p $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
+ fi
+
+ if [ -x /usr/local/bin/dbus-launch -a -z "${DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS}" ]; then
+ eval $(dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-x11)
+ fi
+
+ /usr/local/bin/ck-launch-session "$@"
+ exit 1
+fi
+
Another advantage: with sddm, KDE Plasma starts up just as quickly as it
does on Linux.
