Lightdm issues in XFCE Runit

Hello, good evening, I am a Spanish-speaking user and since I had problems with Lightdm at the beginning of the session in XFCE with Runit, at first I thought they were problems with the ISOLIVE of XFCE when leaving post-installation files in .config but the problem continued and then the truth It frustrates me not being able to do something, I hope you can help me :(
Greetings from Colombia

The problem is that when I log in, Lightdm does not load normally and the screen is black most of the time, where you can simply see "_" and sometimes it loads the cursor and I already have to force the computer to turn off several times until let the ligthdm start

as first uninstall ligtdm and install sddm,  plus his service. to rule out that this is not an error outside of lightdm.
if will be all works ok with sddm, will be all ok. if not, it's problem with another part of system.

unfortunately I doubt you would be able to give us logs here ... or am I wrong ??

How can I enable the smmd service in runit?

am I wrong if so?


ln -s /etc/runit/sv/sddm /run/runit/service/sddm
