Bug#797999: We are now more than one year later and this critical bug is not fixed



¡Hola eric2.valette!

First of all, the bug is not critical because it only affects a very specific setup for a particular video driver.

I suspect that the bug is not present in sddm but in the nvidia driver, triggered by sddm by trying to use composite on the video output as is left by the X driver initialization.

Just updated to kde 5.8, and lib 5.26.0 and it still does not correctly detect my external screen when lid is closed.

What happens if you use the maui sddm theme?

To test this you'll need to install sddm-theme-maui, and create/modify your /etc/sddm.conf to include:

[Theme]
Current=maui

The breeze theme starts sddm in composite mode, which might not be correctly initialized for your video card by default in your particular setup.

I still need kdm!

kdm is gone, dropped upstream and removed from the archive, if you don't want to use sddm, I would suggest lightdm.
