Hi,

I am trying to fully remove X from my world file. Th last package to use it is sddm which is kind of bummer. If I use the regular way from sddm to log in in kde wayland I get the usual desktop. I am having some problems with saving the session at restart but the rest of the things seems to be working as expected. But if I enable wayland sddm and try to log in to a plasma wayland session the only think I get is a black screen with a cursor. If I press alt+f2 I get krunner and from that I can lounch plasmashell and gentoo-pipewire-launcher to get a relastive functional KDE environment. At this point I was considering that the sddm wayland is too experimental but when I tried to start KDE directly from the console throght

Code:

cruzki@semiorka ~ $ XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland exec dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland


I get the exact same thing (!!!!). Now I am starting to think I have something miconfigured somewhere in the plasma kde start-up scripts but I am not sure where to start. The content of

Please note that I have tried to add the workaround I use in "/etc/sddm/scripts/setup" but I has not worked

Code:

cruzki@semiorka ~ $ cat /etc/sddm/scripts/setup
#!/bin/sh
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland exec dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland
exec plasmashell &
exec gentoo-pipewire-launcher &


Any idea of what is being corrupted? any documentation on how to properly set up a kde plasma session?

Thanks in advance
