I edited the /etc/sddm.conf file and changed a line to:
Minimumvt = 7
But there was no effect.

Haven't tried it myself, but according to "man sddm.conf" it should be MinimumVT=
Note the uppercase VT. Most things in linux are case sensitive.

I missed typing here but in the configuration file it is correct. I just
put the "7".

Interesting, Gilberto.

I had wondered about that GUI terminal change but never investigated
it
If I recall correctly, then this came en vogue with the adoption of
systemd as PID 1. Most other systemd-based distributions with Plasma as
the desktop also have SDDM and Plasma itself running at tty1.

You have got to love standards, Aragorn
we have so many
We are greatly reassured that there are only two possible sides of
the road to drive on

And yet all the time, people appear to be buying vehicles intended for off-road use, and then never taking them off-road. :p
I am having problems with sddm as well. It does not retain the name
of the last distro I booted into.
Like another user, I reverted to Lightdm.
Interestingly, I looked up a comparison of login managers. Their
first comment about sddm is that it is inclined to be buggy.

I'm afraid you've got a number of things mixed up. SDDM is a display
and login manager. It doesn't have anything to do whatsoever with what distribution you're logged into.

correlation does not prove cause and effect.
sddm should retain the setting for the last DE that I used, but itI do not have that problem on Mageia 8, so that suggests that the
refused to. To me, that sounds like a problem with sddm. I mentioned
that I had a problem as well with Virtualbox being unable to load its
kernel driver. A new kernel that has just come down fixed that; maybe
it has fixed sddm as well. I am about to find out.
