I'm running Plasma with sddm. After updating I can't login

General system Kernel, boot, graphics & hardware

Issue is not NVIDIA related, since eos-plasma-sddm-config is just 2 config files I checked the repo and there’s an old pull request which fixes it

If someone does not want to uninstall eos-plasma-sddm-config it’s possible to edit the file at

/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf

and paste the linked configuration. Please note that I only tried on my pc (but it shouldn’t be a big issue since you can just remove this file or uninstall eos-plasma-sddm-config)

edit: instead of changing this file it should be possible to add another .conf file in the same folder with just the overrides/new values.
