Configuration

LightDM configuration is provided by the following files:

/usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

LightDM KDE Greeter uses lightdm-kde-greeter.conf for its configuration.

System provided configuration should be stored in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/. System administrators can override this configuration by adding files to /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ and /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. Files are read in the above order and combined together to make the LightDM configuration.

Thus, to enable lightdm-kde-greeter as the current lightdm greeter, you can make a file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-myconfig.conf with the following:

[Seat:*]
greeter-session=lightdm-kde-greeter

For most installations you will want to change the keys in the [Seat:*] section as this applies to all seats on the system (normally just one). A configuration file showing all the possible keys is provided in data/lightdm.conf.

This repository also contains the KDE configuration module, to configure greeter parameters via GUI. Once installed it should be accessible via System Settings -> Startup and Shutdown -> Login Screen (LightDM).
