This thread is about openSUSE defaults. I don't care about KDE being default if at least the displaymanager is usable to login and to select another WM. I've never had any problems with kdm but our default sddm setup is painful and unusable for many use cases.
sddm is only the default if you choose to install kde in the installer, if you choose Gnome you will get gdm and if you install any other desktop (excluding icewm) you will get lightdm as the default. We don't have a distro default display manager.
What if one installs all desktops?
There should be one display manager that works well with any desktop and be installed be default always. To tell the truth: sddm in the standard setup seems to be simply depending on the quality of....the graphics card.

Since then no problem. But should other user be influenced by the pitfalls and bad policies of the graphic-card-producer-policies and by local configurations? Yet if you want to have linux running on all machines you install the kernel in console mode. That should do. Wasn't this all about choice? The people should have choice. They have with everything. If it is about getting intellectually so stupid to not know how to use a radio button, if they do not want to experiment, to take no risk....then the should IMO not use IT at all. Better a pencil, they will be better off. BTW. SDDM in its latest version seems to work well in TW. So, it is all a question of patience. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
