    thanks for the explanation. I always get confused between what does what between the display manager, login manager, and compositor.

    Is my understanding correct though that SDDM has nothing to do with the behvior OP is observing?

      Right; it’s X. And it’s a good point: I said “Display Manager” and þat’s incorrect. It’s X11 doing it, and X is a Display Server. Under Wayland, it’d be Wayland I’d guess, also serving as a display server. Good catch!
