sorry for answering 4 days later. Idk, it says sddm supports rootless xorg, also gdm supports it by defualt sometimes ig? (lightsm doesn’t support rootless xorg)

It says that when I try to start it from the console with the file that sets the thing to x11-user otherwise o don’t remember what it says probably just that I need root to run it.

No apparently you don’t need to replace it, if you do it just starts it as root. I can start xfce4 with startxfce4 as user but i can’t start sddm as user from console, only as root. I did try changing it to x11-(username) and just (username) it was the same as just doing x11 or not having the file, although I could also have done something wrong there.

At this point just changing the dm might be easier tbh. Although idk if that woulf actually work. I believe it starts x with the sddm user and not your actual user because, well, you’re not logged in

It’s just safer ig.

Faie enough.

Eh, I mean I did look at some tutorial but also some forums and at the archwiki for xorg, Idk if I looked at the one for sddm but it doesn’t say anything different from what I saw, I kinda looked into the gentoo wiki for rootless xorg too or whatever but that didn’t help much.

I am not expecting you to 100% know everything and help it’s like well maybe someone might know what’s wrong. idk.

Oh sorry, I transcribed it from my phone it doesn’t actually have that one typo :p

sddm just says it failrd to change owner of the socket if i do sddm in the console.

It’s only banned if they find out!

I cracked my offline games and mostly stopped using steam. :p

It’s not even for pirating I don’t want to depend on those guys to own my game which I guess is piracy I think, but anyway.

I don’t think it was implied you were.

my experiece is just stuff getting fixed and breaking rsndomly tbh.
