This option reduces the time sddm takes to load in systems that have a large number of users, that probably have their home directories using nfs automount. The upstream default is 7, which is kind of low. If you have more than 7 users in your system you might want to raise this value, or you can explicitly set the EnableAvatars value. This is documented in the generated example configuration file in (/usr/share/doc/sddm/sddm.conf), I'm requesting upstream to document this option in the sddm.conf manpage." The important file /usr/share/doc/sddm/sddm.conf seems to be nowhere to be found here on F26 .... or in any package that might provide it for this system.... or I failed to search for it ... _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
