Ken, thought I should share with you and the list.

I've  replaced lxdm by sddm, *without systemd*:

03/23/15 18:36  lxdm-0.5.0
07/29/15 21:20  sddm-0.11.0

Also have some issues, but the drop-down menu of keyboard alternatives,
doesn't open, only two question marks ("??") are displayed. However,
when I start typing the password, magically, the question marks are
replaced by the Brazilian flag. For me, both, "Enter" keys work fine to
login.

Anyway, I have changed Xsetup:

$ cat /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup
#!/bin/sh
# Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears
LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8

Did that hoping to not have your issue. Perhaps it is the reason I'm
getting question marks.

Searched "sddm keyboard" and have just seen in a post at

[https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1508261#p1508261]

{{{
You edit file
/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup
and write
setxkbmap "your layout"
}}}

Removed LANG and included:

setxkbmap -option "br,us"

Gives me the Brazilian flag, as expected, but not the second option,
differently from expected.

When you succeed, I would like very much to learn how to do it, please.

Changing the topic a bit:

SDDM is *recommended* for KDE5 and LXQt.

I think at some time, preferably before freeze we should include it in
BLFS. Opinions, please? Volunteer, please? I also volunteer.

Should not go with either KDE5 and LXQt, because it is general and to
the best of my knowledge, it is not from either, although the maintainer
seem to be the same as the one for many LQXt packages, correct me if I'm
wrong.
