lxqt-wayland-session - Man Page
Wayland session for LXQt
Description
This module provides the files needed for the Wayland session of the LXQt desktop environment and enables the Wayland settings page in lxqt-config-session.
Files
startlxqtwayland: Script which starts the compositor and sets the keyboard layout.
lxqt-qdbus: Wrapper script for qdbus commands in keybindings. See lxqt-qdbus --help.
Desktop entry file stating startlxqtwayland as binary needed to start LXQt Wayland sessions. Sourced e. g. by display managers.
Basic configuration files for supported compositors where needed: Hyprland, kwin_wayland, labwc, niri, river, sway, wayfire.
Unsupported Compositors
Any compositor can be launched by startlxqtwayland but for starting and exiting the LXQt session a line lxqt-session && <exit_compositor_command> has to be added to its autostart configuration.
Notes
Some lxqt-configuration tools currently do not support Wayland and those settings have to be configured in the compositor's configuration:
* lxqt-globalkeys
* lxqt-config-monitor (though kwin_wayland is mostly supported)
* lxqt-config-input
Limitations in lxqt-panel:
* Workspace support in lxqt-panel's taskbar plugin is supported only in kwin_wayland and Wayfire.
* Workspace switcher is supported in kwin_wayland, Wayfire and in compositors which support the ext-workspace-v1 protocol like niri and labwc.
* kbindicator and qeyes plugin are currently not supported under Wayland.
