[Bug 1624268] Re: pam_mount crashes SDDM because helper doesn't close session after authentication

[Flames_in_Paradise]

Also check:

loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID

It turns out then, that there is no relation for you having a black
screen (aka stuck SDDM); I do not know enough about your
installation/Hardware to help you out on that. But the two previous
questions and that one could help to get shine some light into the
problem.

I'd suggest that you remove the packages, since they are an early
preview, and not yet thoroughfully enough tested:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:tsimonq2/sddm-fixes 

(tested that too-it works)

You'll be getting the update once it's through the SRU-bugfix-process of
thouroughful testing.


@ Simon: I've made a test install of the packages on two unvirginic
production-systems (64-Bit/no external monitors). It doesn't hurt the
system. But I discovered a small oops, that may as well come through the
backports-ppa, nothing harmfull (kwallet4) but just not nice. But that
should get fixed in the ppa. In terms of Zesty I wouldn't want to 'til
Apr. to have this srued – and I'd really exspect sddm-0.14 to be in
there by then.

In short: if you need assistance on testing that for SRU, I'll set up a
juvenile small Virtual-Box installation, upgrade it to represent the
current state of packages. As test-pattern I would also suggest to
switch to Light-DM and vice-versa. I'll be with you on the other bug-
report, then.
