You could do something like: mkdir -p /etc/portage/env/x11-misc && echo 'MYCMAKEARGS="-DSDDM_INITIAL_VT=7"' > /etc/portage/env/x11-misc/sddm. But I think there might be another problem here if there's no runtime variable to allow display-manager-init to control which VT to use.

Great thank you, I know about this cmake option but didn't know how to use it, it works great, thx. > But I think there might be another problem here if there's no runtime > variable to allow display-manager-init to control which VT to use. There is, I think the latest sddm logic is like this, they discarded MinimumVT config. option from v0.20 as is described eg. here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM#SDDM_starts_on_tty1_instead_of_tty7 and everything should be autodetected but it doesn't work correctly in some situations. I saw somewhere that the logic can also be to pick the first free or available vt terminal. |
