I fixed this in nixpkgs, this should not be necessary.

This will not do anything, because our service name is display-manager.service (for legacy reasons). It should probably be set in the NixOS module instead.

steamos-managercreates a filezzt-steamos-temp-login.confin order to temporarily override the sddm config in order to switch to desktop. But we were hard coding this intosddm.conf, we should've really be doing this in a seperate config insddm.conf.dso that steamos-manager's config can override it when the user requests to switch to desktop.This matches how it works on SteamOS.
