You might have just hit the nail on the head ( and yeah sorry for the frags.. we're neck deep in TLS stuff at work, then my personal issues I got cross-wired for a spell) So looking in the display-manager.service I see the following: [Unit] Description=GNOME Display Manager # replaces the getty Conflicts=getty@tty1.service After=getty@tty1.service # replaces plymouth-quit since it quits plymouth on its own Conflicts=plymouth-quit.service After=plymouth-quit.service # Needs all the dependencies of the services it's replacing # pulled from getty@.service and plymouth-quit.service # (except for plymouth-quit-wait.service since it waits until # plymouth is quit, which we do) After=rc-local.service plymouth-start.service systemd-user-sessions.service # GDM takes responsibility for stopping plymouth, so if it fails # for any reason, make sure plymouth still stops OnFailure=plymouth-quit.service [Service] ExecStart=/usr/sbin/gdm KillMode=mixed Restart=always IgnoreSIGPIPE=no BusName=org.gnome.DisplayManager StandardOutput=syslog StandardError=inherit EnvironmentFile=-/etc/locale.conf ExecReload=/bin/kill -SIGHUP $MAINPID [Install] Alias=display-manager.service So I think you are right.. I'd have to change this file to point towards the PLasma equivalent of GDM.
