Comment (by bdubbs@…):
This does not work satisfactorily for me.
Building, I needed to make a change to the first sed:
{{{
sed -e '/UPOWER_SERVICE),+1/ s:^://:' \
-i src/daemon/PowerManager.cpp
}}}
But I cannot get the keyboard to work correctly or to use the mouse to
select a user.
If I select some keys and then select the session, some dots come up in
the default user. The KB then kinda/sorta works and I can log in. I
chose lxde and that seems fine, but upon logging out I could not do
anything.
The first time I tried, I had power buttons in the upper right corner, but
never since.
For the keyboard I tried editing /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup and
adding:
/opt/xorg/bin/setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us -keycodes evdev
but that did not seem to help. Almost everything is default. No custom
theme, etc. The only changes to sddm.conf were to add /opt/xorg in a few
places, but that really shouldn't affect the keyboard reaction.
I did install lxdm as an alternative and it worked fine.
Perhaps we should remove sddm from the book and try lightdm:
