This may help to determine if SDDM is installed: $ dnf list installed \*sddm\* Updating and loading repositories: Repositories loaded. Installed packages kde-settings-sddm.noarch 42.0-3.fc42 fedora sddm.x86_64 0.21.0-9.fc42 fedora sddm-breeze.noarch 6.3.4-2.fc42 updates sddm-kcm.x86_64 6.3.4-1.fc42 fedora sddm-wayland-plasma.noarch 6.3.4-3.fc42 updates And if SDDM is installed, Arch has a nice page on SDDM at <https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM>.
