/etc/sddm.conf/
and change the theme in there tocatppuccin-<flavour>
. For example,catppuccin-mocha
.
- If you don't have this file make one with
.conf
extension and make sure it has these two lines within the config:
[Theme]

pacman -Syu qt6-svg qt6-declarative qt5-quickcontrols2
apt install --no-install-recommends qml-module-qtquick-layouts qml-module-qtquick-controls2 libqt6svg6
dnf install qt6-qtquickcontrols2 qt6-qtsvg
eopkg install qt6-quickcontrols2 qt6-svg
This theme is available in nixpkgs catppuccin-sddm
.

environment.systemPackages = [(
pkgs.catppuccin-sddm.override {
flavor = "mocha";
font = "Noto Sans";
fontSize = "9";
background = "${./wallpaper.png}";
loginBackground = true;
}
)];
Then set it as the theme in the sddm configuration, change the suffix to the flavor you set in the package override:
displayManager.sddm = {
enable = true;
theme = "catppuccin-mocha";
package = pkgs.kdePackages.sddm;
};
