Just for grins, try kde-plasma.desktopI was thinking we weren't using the right value for session=... I had the same problem when setting the cursor until I stumbled upon the correct value, and I got kde-plasma.desktop from the sddm.log; however when I switched to that it then just displayed plasma.desktop so I'm not sure what is the correct value.
According to the doc, this only comes into play the first time, so my testing of it was invalid... it appeared to work because it was being ignored in my case.
Here is another link I found: https://www.mankier.com/5/sddm.conf
I'll keep looking, but if you do figure out what is going on, please post here... I'm curious now...
The Theme cursor settings I posted earlier are accurate and do work, if that is any consolation... ;-)
Gerald (and others)
I seem to have found a workaround to make Plasma the default desktop in sddm.
I renamed /usr/share/xsessions/plasma.desktop to /usr/share/xsessions/0plasma.desktop and Plasma is now offered as the default session on the sddm login screen.
Of course, every time the plasma-workspace package is updated plasma.desktop will come back, but I can handle that.
Thanks to everyone for their input.
