Did you finish that install? If so could you pastebin `lsblk`?

Agreed. Surprised this has never come up before. Feel free to make a bug
against the sddm package.

That weird little feature is one of the things I miss most about LXDE. I
never did anything with it (too busy trying to ship what we DO have),
but that's also worth a feature request. That would be against the
lxqt-panel package.

Not an unreasonable request. [sddm supports it][1] so we can add it.
File a bug against the lubuntu-artwork source package (of which
sddm-greeter-lubuntu is a binary package of).

That's because we're using sddm, which is WAY more powerful, WAY more
documented, but also a little more complex. You can dig into
/usr/share/sddm and play around in there, perhaps by looking at the
[theming wiki][1] but we're also looking to add [sddm-config-editor][2]
to 19.10. If you're industrious, you could always build it yourself.
Last time I tried, it was pretty clean and easy. The Debian team has
already [started the work][3].
