Login Screen and Lock Screen

  • Since SDDM took over this has become more complicated
    • I think that SDDM works well now (18.04.3)
    • We hope it only gets better!

Login Screen

  • This is configured in /usr/share/sddm/themes/breeze/
    • edit the two config files.
      • theme.conf and theme.conf.user
    • They look like this originally

[General] type=color color=#1d99f3 background=

    • Remove all "types" or comment them out.
  • We use the below in both config files
    • You can put the picture anywhere and add the path.

[General] type=image background=beach.jpeg

Login Screen Error

Occasionally a giant keyboard will popup when you are booting up or logging in.

You need to add a config file to override the default which is buried deep in sddm

If you have /etc/sddm.conf then add the line: InputMethod=

If you don't then create it with that one line.

sudo nano /etc/sddm.conf

It will open a new file. Type InputMethod= on the first line (nothing else) and save the file.

Lock Screen

  • This can be done directly from settings.
    • Then Desktop Behavior
    • Then Screen Locking
      • Click on Appearance, choose, and apply
