Hi,
I have two monitors. When I power on my computer, SDDM puts the cursor on the monitor-1. So, I type my password, but nothing appends. I need to put my cusor on the password field of the second monitor, then type it, and then SDDM logs me in.
What surprised me is that on the monitor 1, the buttons "Sleep". "Restart" and "Shutdown" are all greyed.
If I try to login directly on the monitor 2 (without entering my password on the monitor 1), it works as intended.

Do you have any idea to either (1) set the cursor to the monitor 2 by default or (2) ensure SDDM logs me in on the monitor 1 ?

I am currently also experiencing the same thing. It seems like an upstream bug, probably caused by an update to Qt 6.8, and it's already reported to the KDE Bugtracking System: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494804

Same here, upgrade to Plasma 6.2.1 seems to be pretty buggy. When trying to login from external monitor it remains locked, no problem moving the mouse to the laptop screen and login from here.

Oh okey, thank you for your replies.
