   Our earlier 'fixing' discussions involved etc/gdm/custom.conf   
      
   A 'normal' Plasma install on a current KDE Ub such as for KDE neon or   
   Kubuntu doesn't even use a gdm dir at all because gdm is 'gnome display   
   manager'. Gnome is NOT KDE.   
      
   KDE uses SDDM for simple desktop display manager, but it doesn't   
   'reconfigure' between xorg and wayland the same way as I described in a   
   different sub-thread.   
      
   I mention all that not by way of an 'answer', but by way of saying that   
   when you introduce an entirely new/different desktop environment, a LOT   
   of things are done differently.
