I’m using EndeavourOS with KDE.

The display is correctly oriented when logged in but it doesn’t rotate correctly when I’m logged out.

EDIT: corrected the post. This happens when logged out, locking the screen has it displayed correctly.

    How do you think the OP is supposed to know that “SDDM” is the issue to look up?

    Are you serious?

    Because using OPs own words and typing in “kde login rotation” into Google immediately comes up with results talking about SDDM.

    The laziness is strong.

      Yes. I would assume that the problem is in X11 or Wayland before thinking it could be SDDM, frankly. But even then, googling “Linux login screen” doesn’t immediately reveal SDDM to be the point of concern.

        Why do you keep moving like the goal posts around? I explained to you how minimal effort on a user’s part can lead to answers, which can lead to new questions and answers.

          I’m not moving any goalposts at all. I’m expressing how inexperience and bad assumptions can make one’s searching unfruitful through no fault of their own. That’s all I’ve ever been saying.

            Incredible how we’ve managed to get to this point. People are actually arguing that being lazy is technically beneficial to documentation online and that it’s rude to not just accept it.

      Ah, you made an edit. Yeah, “kde login rotation” does, but “EndeavourOS login rotation” gives you no results mentioning SDDM. Giving people the benefit of the doubt costs you nothing over assuming that they’re lazy, and the added bonus is that you don’t sound like a jerk.

        The edit was a new line removal and your whataboutism is exhausting.

        Edit: actually I don’t remember what was changed anymore. Every once in a while I see conversations like the ones in this post and I see red.

        What I do remember is that I’ve stuck to my point and no one will convince me that laziness actually helps research and explaining to others how to do things better is unacceptable.
