:Manual section: 5
:Manual group: sddm
SYNOPSIS
========
Configuration loads all files in the configuration directories followed by the configuration file in the order listed below with the latter having highest precedence. Changes should be made to the local configurations.

System configuration directory
**@CONFIG_DIR@**
Local configuration directory
**@CONFIG_FILE@**
Local configuration file for compatibility
DESCRIPTION
===========
This file configures various parameters of the sddm display manager **sddm**\(1\).
If this file is not available, default values are used.
OPTIONS
=======
[General] section:
`DisplayServer=`
Select the display server to use for the greeter.
Valid values are:
* `x11`: X server running as root.
* `x11-user`: X server running as unprivileged user.
* `wayland`: Wayland compositor as unprivileged user. (Experimental)
Default value is "x11".
For `x11-user` you might need to configure Xorg.wrap(1).
`HaltCommand=`
Halt command.
Default value is "@HALT_COMMAND@".
`RebootCommand=`
Reboot command.
Default value is "@REBOOT_COMMAND@".
`Numlock=`
Change numlock state when **sddm-greeter** starts.
Valid values are `on`, `off` or `none`.
If property is set to `none`, numlock won't be changed.
Default value is "none".
`InputMethod=`
Set the Qt input method for the greeter.
Tablet users with Qt Virtual Keyboard installed can set this
to "qtvirtualkeyboard" for the on-screen keyboard.
Other known values are "ibus" for the Intelligent Input Bus,
or "compose" for dead keys support.
Leave this empty if unsure.
`Namespaces=`
Comma-separated list of paths bound to Linux namespaces to enter with
setns() before starting the user session. For example, to enter network
namespace `mynet` created with `ip netns add mynet`, the value might be
`/run/netns/mynet`. Default value is empty. (The value is ignored if
the operating system is not Linux.)
[Theme] section:
`ThemeDir=`
Path of the directory containing theme files.
Default value is "@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@/themes".
`Current=`
Name of the current theme.
By default this setting is empty, meaning the embedded theme
will be used.
`FacesDir=`
Path of the directory containing face files,
face files should be in username.face.icon format.
Default value is "@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@/faces".
`CursorTheme=`
Name of the cursor theme to be set before starting
the display server.
`CursorSize=`
Cursor size to be set before starting the display server.
`Font=`
Name of the font to be set before starting the
display server. Please note that the theme can still override this option.
`EnableAvatars=`
When enabled, home directories are searched for ".face.icon" images to
display as their avatars. This can be slow on some file systems.
When disabled, all avatars will be default. Themes may choose to hide
them altogether.
Default value is true.
[X11] section:
`ServerPath=`
Path of the X server.
Default value is "/usr/bin/X".
`ServerArguments=`
Arguments to the X server.
Default value is "-nolisten tcp".
`XephyrPath=`
Path of the Xephyr.
Default value is "/usr/bin/Xephyr".
`SessionDir=`
Comma-separated list of directories containing session files.
Default value is "/usr/local/share/xsessions,/usr/share/xsessions".
`SessionCommand=`
Path of script to execute when starting the user session. This script
receives the value of the "Exec" setting in the ".desktop" file of the selected
session and runs it.
Default value is "@SESSION_COMMAND@".
`SessionLogFile=`
Path to the user session log file, relative to the home directory.
Default value is ".local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log".
`DisplayCommand=`
Path of script to execute when starting the display server.
The script will be executed as root when General.DisplayServer
is "x11", otherwise as sddm user.
Default value is "@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@/scripts/Xsetup".
`DisplayStopCommand=`
Path of script to execute when stopping the display server.
The script will be executed as root when General.DisplayServer
is "x11", otherwise as sddm user.
Default value is "@DATA_INSTALL_DIR@/scripts/Xstop".
`MinimumVT=`
Minimum virtual terminal number that will be used
by the first display. Virtual terminal number will
increase as new displays added.
This setting is no longer available since SDDM v0.20.
`EnableHiDPI=`
Enables Qt's automatic HiDPI scaling.
Can be either "true" or "false".
Default value is "true".
The `XauthPath=` option is no longer necessary, libxau is used instead.

`/tmp/xauth_XXXXX`. This is necessary for to the use of `FamilyWild` entries.
