SDDM: Simple QML Based Display Manager
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
SDDM is lightweight display manager using QML for the user interface.
SDDM depends only on Qt, XCB and PAM and has a small, hackable code base.
SDDM can be compiled for with Qt4 or Qt5.
Tarball includes a couple of reference themes and PKGBUILD for arch package generation.
For more information and installation instructions check README included in the source distribution.

I'm testing SDDM on archlinux, but after login on a user I'm not able to come back to the greeter to switch to another user. Is there any command to do so far?

Changing the background depending on the time is much easier. Just change the "source" property of the "Background" components depending on current time.

We are planning to implement fast user switching in the next development cycle. So you can expect it in the coming weeks/months.
I am not sure about implmenting XDCMP, though. Since X is on its way out and there are lots of good display managers out there supporting it. So when SDDM matures I don't expect that there will be much need for XDMCP. It will depend on user demand and developer interest.

We distribute a service file for integration with systemd because that's what me and other developers are mostly using. If you are using systemd and follow the steps in the wiki, it should work automatically. If not, you need to ask your packagers for the integration bits.

Also if you can report the bug into our bug tracker (http://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues) it will be easier to track the status. Bug reports tend to get lost in comments.

I have actually made systemd optional on current master.
Unfortunately, I lack the knowledge to integrate with upstart, somebody with ubuntu knowledge needs to do the work. I asked in the ubuntu community google plus channel for help, but nobody responded. :(

One correction: my os is Kubuntu 64bit, not Ubuntu as I said before. I've got already installed all development libraries (Qt, KDE and other) needed to build a wide range of Qt/KDE based applications.

And it seems that the source package somehow didn't get updated and was out of sync. I have updated it with the latest version. But content upload part seems a bit weird, I can't remove old content files.
Anyway, if the source package fails please try building directly from github.

Also, since QML is available on Android and is the UI machine for Ubuntu's Phone, useful as window manager on these?
