18.10 sddm openbox session available, but crashes

[Boruch Baum]

In the default lubuntu 18.10 configuration, the upper left corner of the sddm login screen offers three session options, one of which is 'openbox'. However, logging in with that optionn selected 'freezes' sddm.

System recovery is possible by switching to another linux virtual terminal (eg. Ctrl+Alt+F2), logging into to a text session, and restarting the sddm service ('systemctl restart sddm.service').

I cannot reproduce this behavior. I would suggest recreating the behavior, and then filing a bug against lxqt-session or sddm (with `ubuntu-bug package-name`). This will help pull in some logs, hopefully.

@Walter: In terms of reproducability, the behavior is that the mouse does continue to navigate across the screen, but none of sddm features respond. For example, one can not select a user, or edit or enter a password, or select anu button on the sddm screen. I'm posting this just in case your input was based upon being able to move the mouse across the screen. In any event, I will take your suggestion and file 'ubuntu-bug lxqt-session'.
