Here I can't select the background in the sddm login screen anymore.  >:(
Is that the same for you?

And a big here also - some basic informations like DE etc would be cool.

Thanks, @hendrikL, for posting.

I did not succeed to change the default background image for sddm login screen in plasma systemsettings.
That was possible some time ago!  >:(

Well, I use my own custom theme, never used the breeze one.
I tested it it and was able to change the background image by clicking on the background (Hintergrund) symbol (plasma systemsettings5).
If this dosen't work , you should be able to change the background by editing /usr/share/sddm/themes/breeze/theme.conf
Be careful, make a copy of the original file like cp theme.conf theme.conf~ and you need to know the path to the picture or the right colour code.
