#lxqt — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #lxqt, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I just upgraded the system on the recording laptop for #IWP9, which is @archlinux btw, the only convenient distro out there. 🤗

    I used the chance to try out #LXQt on #Wayland with #niri. While niri is not my cup of tea, this was a good chance to contribute to the #Arch wiki and document pitfalls with the config file; see the note in the wiki.archlinux.org/title/LXQt# section.
    Kudos to the person on Reddit who replied to someone else wondering why their config file had no effect, albeit validating ok.

  2. I am really liking LXQT! :gutkato_koro:
    It feels substantially modular, simple, lightweight, and power-user friendly!
    I love seeing an QT desktop that’s independent the behemoth KDE. :kde:

    Another cute thing: No need to mess with gsettings or some dedicated command to mess with the config of a running system, you can just write to config files in ~/.config/lxqt, and it’ll be applied on-the-fly! Loving it~

  16. Quién dijo que en GNU/Linux no se pueden hacer algunas cosas que sí hace Windows?

    No señoras y señores, Linux puede hacer todo y más 😅

    Screen tearing / ghosting en Linux 💻

    ¿Causas? 🤔
    #Xorg? #lxqt? el compositor? una app que no refresca? drivers gráficos?

    Habrá que investigar un poco... ¿les ha pasado? 💬

  17. I've been messing around with #LXQT in a vm lately. I really kind of like it.

    Is anyone using LXQT in a multi-head / multi-monitor configuration?

    Any issues with where it defaults to placing new apps, resuming from screensaver or hibernation, adding/removing displays while running? Anything else I'm not thinking about?

  18. I'm getting this error on Fedora Rawhide.

    lxqt-config-monitor: symbol lookup error: lxqt-config-monitor: undefined symbol: _ZNK7KScreen6Output9isPrimaryEv

    Any other #lxqt users seeing this ?

  19. Es más fuerte que yo, si un comando medianamente largo lo tengo que ejecutar más de dos veces, sale alias xD

    Y lo peor, he creado un script que lo ejecuta sólo cuando inicio sesión en #lxqt, y ya no necesito ejecutar el comando 😅

    Más sobre alias en la terminal de comandos? 👇

  23. I wonder why fonts are wrong in Konsole in LXQt Desktop.

    (Not wrong in Openbox or KDE Plasma.)

    Va perfecto esto en #X11, el único tema es que, cuando suspendo el sistema, al despertarlo, tengo que ejecutar el comando xrandr de nuevo porque pierde el escalado de pantalla...

    He probado varias cositas pero nada parece funcionar... habrá que actualizar y seguir buscando info 🙂

    La otra, pasar mi #lxqt a #wayland, y cruzar los dedos con el driver de la #nvidia, mientras no se me joda el #minecraft, todo bien 😅
