Jani, I think this is lightdm with a similar issue to other DE's.

Are you able to assist here please?

It seems the greeter of razor-qt is not quite what we want for lightdm. It doesn't care about configuration and sorts defaults alphabetically - that's why IceWM is first. I'd propose to suggest another greeter in task-razorqt package.

Could someone try the same workaround we have already used in Xfce and MATE?

After install boot to text mode (or to login window and switch to tty) and add /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-mageia-razorqt.conf with the following context:

[SeatDefaults]
user-session=05RazorDesktop

Then save and restart computer/dm.

It works for autologin which didn't work before. But when you log out after that, then Openbox is default. I removed lightdm-razorqt-greeter and installed lightdm-gtk2-greeter. With this greeter autologin still works and when I log out then RazorDesktop is preselected. So it seems that the razorqt-greeter doesn't parse settings quite as well.

Closing this br as razorqt is no longer provided (dead project).
