Hmm, according to https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/683 this icons of AccountsService should be available since sometime in 2018 ... And sddm hasn't changed in this respect I think, and the former user-manager also used AccountsService. Checking the source of sddm: const QString userFace = QStringLiteral("%1/.face.icon").arg(user->homeDir); const QString systemFace = QStringLiteral("%1/%2.face.icon").arg(facesDir).arg(user->name); QString accountsServiceFace = QStringLiteral("/var/lib/AccountsService/icons/%1").arg(user->name); if (QFile::exists(userFace)) user->icon = QStringLiteral("file://%1").arg(userFace); else if (QFile::exists(accountsServiceFace)) user->icon = accountsServiceFace; else if (QFile::exists(systemFace)) user->icon = QStringLiteral("file://%1").arg(systemFace); so it checks - ~/.face.icon - sddm face dir/$USER.face.icon - /var/lib/AccountsService/icons/$USER So changes *should* show up ... I am a bit puzzled.
