Re: SDDM: restart don't kill greeter/helper-prcoesses

Speaking of SDDM (and somewhat off-topic, though not really), I enabled SDDM on my laptop and it killed my video.  I run F23 on a Thinkpad T440s, which has two external monitor connections, one VGA, and one mini-DisplayPort.  Having monitors connected to each were fine.  The company upgraded my second (the VGA) monitor to one with DP/HDMI/VGA connections.  

For some reason the VGA connection didn't give me more than 1024x768 no matter what I did, so I got a mini-DP to dual HDMI adapter from Belkin.  This gave me the resolution I needed and it worked fine until I enabled SDDM. After that, it became impossible to use one of the displays.  Only one Monitor was found on boot, and when I did manage for the system to find monitor #2, it just mirrors one display and doesn't show up in System Settings AS a 2 external display. 

So, I'm having to blow away this install (which I'm writing on now) and reinstalling F23 KDE to see if this fixes the problem.  If I still have trouble, I wonder if the F23 Workstation (GNOME) version handles this any better?  I hate GNOME to be honest, but I need this to be consistent.  

Just my $0.02.

If you revert to the standard theme do you still get zombies?
