sddm - the simple desktop display manager

Description

       sddm is a display and login manager based on Qt technologies.

       Using  QtQuick  and  QML,  designers  are  given  the  ability  to easily create pleasant, modern looking
       interfaces for sddm.

       sddm runs the greeter as a system user named sddm whose home directory needs to be set to /var/lib/sddm.

       If pam and systemd are available, the greeter will go through logind, which will give it  access  to  drm
       devices.

       Distributions  without  pam  and  systemd  will need to put the sddm user into the video group, otherwise
       errors regarding GL and drm devices might be experienced.

       For X11 sessions, the cookie for X authorization is written  into  a  temporary  file  /tmp/xauth_XXXXXX,
       owned and only accessible by the user.
