greetd on zelda was locked to Hyprland via --cmd, with no way to launch an alternative session. This adds KDE Plasma 6 as a Wayland-native option selectable at the tuigreet login screen.

Changes

  • services.desktopManager.plasma6.enable = true — uses the Wayland-only Plasma 6 NixOS module (no X11/SDDM); installs Plasma and registers plasma.desktop under /run/current-system/sw/share/wayland-sessions/
  • --cmd--sessions /run/current-system/sw/share/wayland-sessions — switches tuigreet from a hard-coded single command to a directory-based session picker; --remember-session was already in place so the last-used session is pre-selected on reboot
services.desktopManager.plasma6.enable = true;
# ...
command = "${tuigreet} --greeting \"hi finn :)\" --time --remember --remember-session --sessions /run/current-system/sw/share/wayland-sessions";

Both hyprland.desktop and plasma.desktop will appear in the tuigreet session list.
