Thanks for looking at it. :)

On a precedent issue, where we tried to save the desktop, I got some partial solution. I can get some personnally tailored desktop setting for lxqt with the use of the guiexec cheatcode. The use of scripts is also handy.

Hmm, ?
Here the panel icon DO start usm,
(running 32 bit, in "always fresh"-mode)

But I cant take screenshots by the button, only by the menu-way
(the prt sc-button dont work in LXQT, but I think it does ion LXDE)

And when I try to save a shot to the usbstick system say
"cant mount, only system administrators can do that" or a similar text,
(sda1 = the usb stick here. have no hdd)

So a leftclick OR rightclick "mount" here on the usb boot -stick (sda1) give me: "Only system admins have the permission to do this"
(But No box to fill in the passwd..)


and when i try to "open as root" from
"tool, "open as root" from the FM-menu,"
then here I finally did get a passwd popup!,
And I here provide the passwd, and .... then nothing changes, im still guest in PcmanFM, :wall:

So always-fresh-mode is pretty useless if we cant access the usb-stick/disks.. ?

The icon in the lxqt panel will not start the usm gui. It has to be started thru command line, which will start the usmgui frontend.Only in root mode (tested in always fresh mode).
Is it normal to have in root mode /usr/share/applications/usm.desktop file:

Code: Select all

Exec=/opt/porteus-scripts/xorg/psu /usr/bin/usmgui
instead of only

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/usmgui
With /usr/bin/usmgui only usmgui will start from the icon on the panel root mode.

Exec=/opt/porteus-scripts/porteus-settings-centre
Same problem for :

This script does not work under lxqt:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# /opt/porteus-scripts/xorg/browser
root@porteus:~#


I like this script. It should be very useful, once functional under lxqt.

This is why to get porteus-FAQ:

Code: Select all

/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome /usr/doc/Porteus-FAQ/index.html
will work better than

Code: Select all

/opt/porteus-scripts/xorg/browser /usr/doc/Porteus-FAQ/index.html (From the panel menu)
which does not work at all.

browser script calls 'chrome' while this application is called now 'google-chrome' or 'google-chrome-stable'.
will push an update with a fix next week.

Another problem: /root/.config/lxqt/autostart.conf does not work. Tested with instructions to start leafpad:

Code: Select all

@leafpad
This lxqt/autostart problem was reported the 9th of may 2014 on archlinux:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lxqt ... mments=all

There is no way to come back from the extended view once it has been applied other than using xrandr commands:
lxqt panel menu > preferences > lxqt system settings > monitor settings > quick options > extended view

What about all the lxqt menu items that are not functional? This seems to make porteus lxqt a very imperfect desktop. Isn't it?
Thanks.

I could report directly to the lxqt forum if this could help. :)

it seems the LXQT forum is getting a little messy, ie several multi-topic/issue threads......
