Adding a Wayland session for Fedora LXQt for F40?
by Neal Gompa 12 Jan '24

12 Jan '24

Hey folks, It's been a while since I last brought up the topic of Wayland for LXQt[1], but some interesting developments have occurred since then. First, it looks like upstream is settling on labwc[2] and has a session that can be packaged[3]. Alternatively, there's apparently a Wayfire plugin for LXQt too[4]. Second, there's a full-blown Wayland effort going on now[5] and a separate status page[6]. Third, SDDM supports running on Wayland (Fedora KDE does this with KWin through sddm-wayland-plasma[7], and Fedora Sway does this with Sway through sddm-wayland-sway[8]). It should be relatively easy to adapt the latter's configuration for labwc or wayfire. It seems like there's some concrete direction for LXQt on Wayland that it would be cool to see a Wayland session offered in Fedora LXQt. What do you think? Are we at a time to finally make this happen?

Matrix room for the LXQt SIG and Fedora LXQt efforts
by Neal Gompa 12 Jan '24

12 Jan '24

Hey all, I've created a Matrix room for the LXQt SIG[1] and asked for it to be pulled into the official Fedora room namespace[2]. I've updated the SIG wiki page[3] accordingly too. If you don't already use Matrix, you can easily do so through Fedora Chat[4] and use your choice of Matrix clients, such as Quaternion, NeoChat, Nheko, etc. [1]: https://matrix.to/#/#lxqt:fedora.im [2]: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/11701 [3]: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LXQt_SIG#Chat [4]: https://chat.fedoraproject.org -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!

I'll take a look. For the L10N sub-packages, I need to take a deeper look into it. IIRC we don't have any l10n packages for the basic LXQt components by default in the live system.

Can anyone help review qtxdg-tools
by Zamir SUN 07 Dec '22

07 Dec '22

Hi team, We need qtxdg-tools to update LXQt into 1.2.0 in Fedora. I've filed a review request[1] but unfortunately nobody come up to do it till now. So I wonder if any packager from the list can help review this? Thanks in advance!

Heads-up: Planning to have LXQt spin images on aarch64 since Fedora 38
by Zamir SUN 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

Hi, Just a heads-up, since aarch64 is more and more easily available in laptop and workstation form, I'm planning to request for generating LXQt images for aarch64. In order to unify the workflow, I've filed a self-contained change[1] and also the corresponding ticket to rel-eng[2]. If there are any other tickets I should create, feel free to let me know.

A few observations regarding Fedora LXQt 35
by Bhikhu 25 May '22

25 May '22

A few observations about Fedora 35 LXQt that might be of help to the devs. First, the official page is misleading in a way. It lists Quassel, FeatherPad, qpdfview, Dragon Player, Yarock as the part of the default distribution but none of them are there on the ISO. I mean inclusion of one application per task wouldn't have bloated the ISO that much, would it have? Falkon ain't bad but wouldn't it be better to include Firefox as the default browser? Enki the text-editor fails to launch because of some Python/QT related shenanigans. There aren't that many apps on the ISO, so I'm surprised that no one tested/QA this before it landed on the release ISO. Not something that you'd expect from an official spin of Fedora. LXDM lists openbox as one of the available sessions but trying to selecting and logging into it, ends up freezing LXDM. Nothing happens. These are not groundbreaking things but coming from an official spin of Fedora, these things are deeply disappointing. I hate to compare different distributions but there is Lubuntu that is an officially recognized spin of Ubuntu and the difference in quality of the default install between Fedora LXQt and Lubuntu are striking. I hope the devs will take this criticism positively and take a queue or two from Lubuntu and Fedora LXQt 36 will be a much better and professional offering than 35.

Is there a way to get LXQt 1.0 in Fedora?
by Sergei S. Rublёv 13 Feb '22

13 Feb '22

Hello all! I have recently started using LXQt with Fedora and had a good experience. I have installed it via command line first. And some time later I fresh-installed Fedora-LXQt (35) spin. They install LXQt 0.17.0. LXQt developers at GitHub say actual version is 1.0. Is there a way to get LXQt 1.0 working in Fedora? I cannot understand instructions about "compiling from source".
