On upgrade to stretch...
This is the actual error running systemsettings5 as root
Save Failed
"DBus Backend error: service start org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm failed: Failed to execute program
org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm: Permission denied"
"DBus Backend error: service start org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm failed: Failed to execute program
org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm: Permission denied"
Or as a normal user:
Save Failed
"DBus Backend error: service start org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm failed: Failed to execute program
org.kde.kcontrol.kcmsddm: Permission denied"
There are other permission errors I get running as a user
file:///usr/share/sddm-kcm/main.qml:36:5: QML Image: Cannot open:
file:///usr/share/sddm/themes/debian-theme/maui.jpg
In this case - the file just isn't there..
Workaround -
You can copy the file sddm.conf to /etc/ and fix the user numbers...
