sddm user missing in plasma track? | PLASMA ISSUES
the temporary workaround that we found last night works fine from what I can tell, and I just did a little testing to see if I can make it less of a pain to implement. at least with my specific monitors and GPU I can turn off all but one monitor before booting and get into sddm, then I can turn the monitors on with no issue, though sddm only displayed on the first two monitors, the third didn't show anything until I logged in

sddm user missing in plasma track? | PLASMA ISSUES
So what I discovered last night is if sddm is running in wayland mode you can go to KDE settings and import your display settings to sddm. But that only works in wayland mode and I wasn't able to find a way last night to change the X11 monitor behavior of sddm. Changing sddm from X11 to Wayland is only a one line change in the default.conf file located in /usr/lib/sddm/sddm.conf.d/ but the file is write protected and Wayland support in sddm is still considered experimental so I am not sure what other issues might crop up due to that change.

Yeah, I think at this point we just need to figure out how to take the user display settings and apply them to sddm to fix that issue

sddm user missing in plasma track? | PLASMA ISSUES
I remember configuring all 3 of my monitors and I had them all working outside of sddm, and when I unplug and then plug them back in they went right back to where I set them to be in the display settings

sddm user missing in plasma track? | PLASMA ISSUES
I tried changing the sddm behavior through KDE settings to automatically log me in in a Wayland session, but it wouldn't display anything until I unplugged my two additional monitors and rebooted. I'm not sure what else to try but I also need to go to bed. Hopefully this information is useful in some way

So in KDE's settings menu you can apply your Plasma settings to SDDM, but the monitor configurations only apply when sddm is running in Wayland and the default is X11, I've tried updating the one line in the config file but it's write protected so I can't change it even using sudo

So the settings get applied to sddm automatically after saving them on my user or do I need to do something special for it?

also from the time the second entry was generated in the log I posted I waited 13 minutes and nothing happened, couldn't get a response from the system when using ctrl + alt or adding any of the function keys into the macro, but the system also never shut itself off, it just sat there, blank until I got tired of waiting and hit the reset button on my case.
