how to change KDE Plasma to X11 default Windowing system in Manjaro Linux

My Try -

To switch your Manjaro KDE Plasma session to X11, log out, select "Plasma (X11)" from the bottom-left corner of the login screen (SDDM), and log back in. If you use auto-login, change the default session in System Settings. [1, 2, 3]

Here are the step-by-step methods based on your login configuration:

Method 1: Using the Login Screen (If Auto-Login is OFF)

1. Log out of your current KDE Plasma session.
2. At the SDDM login screen, look at the bottom-left corner.
3. Click the Desktop Session menu (it might say Wayland or Plasma).
4. Change it to Plasma (X11).
5. Enter your password and log in. The system will remember this choice for future logins. [1, 3]

Method 2: If Auto-Login is ON

If your system logs in automatically and bypasses the screen to change your session, adjust your settings using the desktop interface: [1]

1. Open System Settings via the application launcher.
2. Navigate to Colors & Themes → Login Screen (SDDM).
3. Click the Behavior link/button at the bottom of the window.
4. Look for the Automatically log in section and find the drop-down menu for your session.
5. Select Plasma (X11) (or plasmax11) from the list.
6. Click Apply and Restart your computer. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Method 3: If X11 is missing

Occasionally on fresh Manjaro KDE installs, the X11 session package isn't installed by default. If you cannot find the X11 option: [1]

1. Open your Terminal (Konsole).
2. Install the necessary session package using pacman:
   bash

   sudo pacman -S plasma-x11-session
   

   குறியீட்டைக் கவனமாகப் பயன்படுத்துங்கள்.
3. Once installed, Log Out and follow Method 1 or Method 2 to select the X11 option. [1]

If you want, tell me:

• Do you have auto-login enabled or disabled?
• Are you using Plasma 5 or Plasma 6?

I can give you more specific commands to directly edit the login configuration files if you prefer.
