which can be either elogind or seatd. Enabling them is explained in the
["Session and Seat Management"](../session-management.md) session.

### Display Managers

#### SDDM

To run SDDM itself under wayland, create the file
`/etc/sddm.conf.d/10-wayland.conf` (see
[sddm.conf(5)](https://man.voidlinux.org/sddm.conf.5)), with the contents:

```
[General]
DisplayServer=wayland
```

The above configuration requires installing the `weston` compositor.

Alternatively, if SDDM is being used as part of a KDE installation, it may be
preferable to use the `kwin` compositor:

```
[General]
DisplayServer=wayland
GreeterEnvironment=QT_WAYLAND_SHELL_INTEGRATION=layer-shell

[Wayland]
CompositorCommand=kwin_wayland --drm --no-lockscreen --no-global-shortcuts --locale1
```

In either case, to avoid a conflict, disable `agetty` on the first virtual
terminal:

```
touch /etv/sv/agetty-tty1/down
