Anything recorded in these users' ~/.xsession-errors ?
No. :-( Nothing at all, it's empty. (Yeah, that was the first thing I
checked.) Also "audit2allow -b" doesn't show anything related to sddm.
But KDE works and starts just fine using startx.
I've just tried Plasma 5 Wayland, but the outcome was even worse,
because I ended up with a black screen and no way to switch consoles.
The log messages are still the same, sddm-helper exits with error codes
2 or 15. Running sddm with --test-mode doesn't work at all, it just
hanges right away.
So sddm is unusable on Fedora 23. (That's odd, because it works just
fine for me on Arch.) What alternatives could I try? Is there a working
display manager compatible with KDE 5?
Andrej
KDM is still available in KDE F23. I use it because I have to be able to
configure the login screen, and I didn't find anyway of doing that with
SDDM.
