Regarding topic #4: Shame on me, what I was thinking off! They value for the key "Default Session" is the same as in every other login manager in the world :p For the KDE SC Plasma Workspace is '=kde-plasma.desktop' *** UPDATE *** After starting and stoping SDDM several times -because I was trying to make Circles theme work- I finally log in my KDE SC session just to find it frozen - at least that was my first impression, keep reading. Nothing worked: I wasn't unable to restart the X server via the assigned hot key (in my case the good old C^Meta Backspace combination) and even was unable to switch to any tty. However after several seconds (15? 30?) I was able to change back and forth to the ttys but when I got to tty7 the session was restarted and I found myself at the login screen again - I presume there was some kind of bug eating all the CPU cores and where resources were freed the system executed my command to kill the X server.

Firsts findings after a fresh install: 1. "j:0 /usr/share/apps/sddm/themes/Circles $ cat README This theme is part of the Simple Desktop Display Manager distrubition." Please note the typo in "distribution". Because it's a typo, right? 2. Circles and elarun, the both themes that are installed by default with sddm-qt5-git don't work, they only show a a white screen with the mouse. May be you want to guide me on how to debug the issue. 3. Maldives and Maui themes works great albeit I found the default user avatar is too small for the Maui theme; I have to try using a bigger icon so the avatar isn't pixelated when enlarged to fit the avatar frame. 4. Can't set the default session for KDE SC. I tried, =KDE, =Plasma and =KDE Plasma Workspace but none of them work, I would appreciate some light on how to correctly set the default session. So far I like SDDM very much, it's _very_ flexible and yet minimalist sticking to a true KISS concept: well done.
