== Problems ==
I am having problems with previous version 0.11.0. Have already reported
to Bruce. Cannot remember the last time I told Ken that all LXQt exit
buttons were working here. Cannot remember what i did for them to work.
Cannot remember if Ken solved his problem.
I installed this version, and apparently '''after''', problems appeared.
''En passant'', build instructions needed to be modified, switches and
sed's.
Removed all (0.11.0 and 0.12.0), installed back 0.11.0.
Fact is that only ''exit session'' is working, now. For LXDE, LXQt and
XFce.
But if I start at runleve 3, with '''ck-launch-session dbus-launch
--exit-with-session start...''' or from LXDE (runlevel 5), everything
works.
Wrote all that, because I am not sure about what to do.
1. Remove temporarly sddm from 7.8, to restart working at SVN?
2. Try to fix it (it is taking days from me)?
3. Try to update to 0.12.0 and see if can make this version work for 7.8?
Milestone will be 7.8, , priority high, until we decide what to do, and
if it only does not work for me, good, we change for milestone 7.9,
priority normal.

since this release
We are proud to announce the immediate availability of SDDM 0.12.0.
This release features working Wayland sessions for the first time, but
the greeter is still running on Xorg.
This means that you will be able to login into a Wayland desktop
environment without problems however the greeter screen still depends on
X11.
Work on the Wayland support for the greeter has already been started and
will likely be available with the next release.
Highlights of this release:
• BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE: SDDM now depends on Qt >= 5.3
• BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE: Display setup script is now killed if it
hasn't finished within 30 seconds.
• LICENSING: The Maldives non-free background has been replaced by a
CC-BY-SA alternative
• WAYLAND: Wayland sessions support
• CONFIG: New sddm.conf option XephyrPath (defaults to
/usr/bin/Xephyr)
• CONFIG: new sddm.conf option ServerArguments (defaults to -nolisten
tcp)

• THEMES: Assorted improvements to the default theme
