I've been using vino (remote desktop access application) in 12.04 without any problem. I put an exec line in file /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup in order to start vino server when the kdm starts (like /usr/lib/vino/vino-server &).

Now I've installed 16.04 and saw that kdm is replaced by sddm. There is no such an Xsetup file for sddm. How can I start vino when sddm starts?

create a sddm.config if it does not exist:

sddm --example-config > /etc/sddm.conf

In the XDisplay Section you will see the Xsetup script which is executed as user root:

[XDisplay]
# Xsetup script path
# A script to execute when starting the display server
DisplayCommand=/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup

Replace DisplayCommand with your own script and add /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup there.
