anyone who like me uses sddm on a plain openrc box<br>
with USE="-elogind -systemd" and upgrades to sddm-0.16.0
(recently released)<br>
<br>
That combination does not work. The xdm service starts,
sddm launches,<br>
logs a message that doesn't look too ominous and then does
... nothing.<br>
No sddm, No X-Server. Very confusing, took me a while to
solve.<br>

<div class="gmail_extra">That's interesting. This combination
works just fine here. Installed 0.16.0 Wednesday, rebooted
Thursday, sddm worked as normal. USE="consolekit pam -elogind

I wonder if a piece of hardware, video card for example, is also
needed to trigger this issue? Something in the kernel config
maybe? <br>
<br>
Just a thought. Thanks for the heads up Alan. Nothing like
expecting something to go wrong and have a plan B handy. <br>
