Hi, sendingvthis from my phone . Getting error message at the login prompt

Code: Select all

The current theme cannot be loaded due to the errors below. Please select another theme.
File: ///usr/share/sddm/themes/macventura-light/main.qml.



I cannot enter either user I'd or password. Thank you.

You'd need to manually switch to a different theme. Ctrl+Alt+F2 and then login either as your user or root, and then edit /etc/sddm.conf

As root

Code: Select all

vi /etc/sddm.conf

You need to edit the bottom section, the default is mga-coffee

[Theme]
# use our new custom theme without a userlist
Current=mga-coffee

Then save via : x and restart sddm

Code: Select all

systemctl restart sddm

Thanks. For your info. The dir is sddm.conf.d and the file kde.settings.conf. problem fixed.
