I edited group and added sddm, as syntax below.
Had to do dpkg-reconfigure sddm because default was set to kdm.
sddm started but it is broken, display is garbled, had to go back to terminal and do startx startkde. I think that I have to download packages from unstable, will see if that works.
Will keep you posted, thank you.

    Hmmm...I have this entry in /etc/group *sddm:x:131:* is this what
    you are talking about?
    Otherwise I could do *adduser sddm video* as root.
    Also, without changing anything in my sources.list, I could
    download more updated packages from unstable and install with dpkg.
    What do you think?
    Thank you.


I mean group *video:x:44:sddm,[my username]* in /etc/group. I still have this workaround enabled so I'm not 100% if updating the nvidia drivers from unstable fixes it. Actually I'm using nvidia drivers from experimental.
