I use mate and openbox in TW, and thought I'd have a look at KDE. So I installed KDE as described here: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_install However, my display manager, lightdm, has now been replaced by KDE's display manager, SDDM I believe, with which I can only log into KDE. So I'm stuck with KDE!
In YaST's sysconfig editor, Desktop > Display manager, everything is greyed out. In /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager, if I add 'DISPLAYMANAGER=lightdm', it has no effect. So how could I still log into a window manager other than KDE?
SDDM does have a login manager option to select session type. You won't see it in SDDM any more than you would in LightDM if you have automatic login configured. In that case, you need to log out without rebooting to reach the login greeter and select another session type. You can also switch back to LightDM: update-alternatives --config default-displaymanager Or just uninstall sddm. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
