[SOLVED] SDDM/Wayland is starting Xorg too!

Is that normal?

systemd-+-ACVC.GTK.Servic---7*[{ACVC.GTK.Servic}]
        |-NetworkManager---3*[{NetworkManager}]
        |-avahi-daemon---avahi-daemon
        |-bluetoothd

        |      `-{sddm}

[EDIT]
The process as reported by "ps" says:

[EDIT #2]
Read the wiki, Luke!

What do you mean by "SDDM/Wayland" exactly?

Re: [SOLVED] SDDM/Wayland is starting Xorg too!

What do you mean by "SDDM/Wayland" exactly?

I mean "SDDM starting a KDE Wayland session".
I am not asking for X11, still I see it started.
This is my one and only file in /etc/sddm.conf.d:

[Autologin]
Relogin=true
Session=plasma
User=user

[General]
HaltCommand=/usr/bin/systemctl poweroff
Numlock=on
RebootCommand=/usr/bin/systemctl reboot

[Theme]
Current=breeze
CursorSize=
CursorTheme=breeze_cursors
Font=Noto Sans,10,-1,0,400,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1

[Users]
MaximumUid=60513
MinimumUid=1000

[X11]
ServerArguments=-dpi 0

Maybe those three trailing lines... But I have never added them manually: I only use system settings.

[EDIT]
Commenting or removing them out makes no difference.

Right, SDDM itself is still running on Xorg. That is normal unless you specifically set it up to use Wayland.

How to?
I see no way in system settings...

[EDIT]
I see... manually editing files. Let me try something.

Precisely.
Not 100% clear to me (my fault!) about KDE / KWin, though. Will work on that.

Grazie!
