The SDDM team is proud to announce the release 0.20.0 of SDDM,
the Simple Desktop Display Manager.
The list of changes is also available in our CHANGELOG file:
https://github.com/sddm/sddm/blob/v0....
Adds a Wayland greeter and should fix some long standing bugs relating to slow shutdowns in KDE.
I forgot to say, that you can also work around this by pressing ctrl + alt + f1 during shutdown. (so switching to TTY 1) For whatever reason, this causes SDDM to work normally, stop in peace and allows systemd to shut the rest of the system down like it’s supposed to. Without it having to go kill the process.
This is configurable I assume… If that bug happened to me I would go mad very quickly and find a way to change the setting… :)
