Bug Description

Hi everyone,

user-setup configures SDDM autologin only for Plasma and ignores other DEs/WMs because it only only writes a hardcoded /etc/sddm.conf:

[Autologin]
User=$USER
Session=plasma.desktop

As LXQt also recommends using SDDM, that needs to be changed. I've submitted a patch at https://code.launchpad.net/~joern-schoenyan/user-setup/ubuntu/+merge/249309

Best regards!

  * Don't set TimedLogin, this gets set when Auto login is selected
    in ubiquity but there is no UI to unset it (LP: #1412791)

For some reason which I don't understand, my fix isn't working. sddm.conf every time contains plasma.desktop, even when the file doesn't exist.
