Hi, Thanks reporting, What display manager are you running? Also, on Plasma, accounts-daemon.service - Accounts Service - is not enabled by default.

break in both lxdm and lightdm running on cinnamon session. The problem seems to be that lang.sh will override the session language with the language in locale.conf and /etc/sysconfig/i18n
Seems lightdm the problem? urpmq -i lightdm lightdm-1.26.0-11.mga8.src.rpm Is it upstream supported to change locale at graphical login? Do you expect besides lightdm displays his face in English for example and you select whatever locale (French) to have right after login French UI language (for example) on your DE?
