At other linuxes i used to edit “background=” at apropriate /usr/share/sddm/themes//theme.conf
But at Fedora 30 everything is confused.
/etc/sddm.conf says:
[Theme]
# Current theme name
#Current=01-breeze-fedora
but there is no 01-breeze-fedora theme
$ ls -1 /usr/share/sddm/themes/
02-lxqt-fedora
elarun
maldives
maya
I tried change symbolic link /usr/share/backgrounds/default.png to point to my disired background.
No, background not change.
Q: How to change background picture on login screen SDDM in Fedora 30 LXQT?

Not an option.
I want to know where is stamped background picture at my current configuration.
Somewhere it must be.
And then to edit it.

What about these files?
ls /usr/share/sddm/themes/*/theme.conf
See also:
dnf -q provides "/usr/share/sddm/themes/*/theme.conf"

I repeat again: “at my current configuration”.
I want install nothing.
All I need is change background.

The default theme is Maui and the default background is bundled.
To change it, you need to override it with a new theme configuration:
sudo tee /usr/share/sddm/themes/THEME_NAME/theme.conf.user << "EOF"
[General]
background=/path/to/background.png
EOF
To keep the current theme, override the bundled one with this.

Maui don’t work for me.
I install Diamond SDDM Login Gen5 and got what I want.
