release 0.9.0 of LXQ

#31 Post by Pelo »

We are proud to announce the release 0.9.0 of LXQt, the Lightweight Qt
desktop environment
This release drops all compatibility with Qt 4 :evil: . It also features heavy
internal cleanups and refactorings. Qt 5.3 is now the minimum required
version.

as i failed to install french flag in the menu, and russian one was here
in usr:share ..... i change russian by french colors.
I hope that will not cause a new diplomatic incident

GCstar, With Qt, included in your Puppy

#32 Post by Pelo »

i would underline that people wanting to go outside with netbooks could do it with LxpupQT, what many newest Puppies cannot do because of kernel, newer of course, but missing a pet in rcrsn51 panel to get a dongle working.
3.14.94 is available here wireless section for nowadays computers
QT5 what to do ? Nothing new. Qt4 is enough to run all QT-apps, excepted makagiga. Symphytum old version as nothing missing compared to Qt5 version. AS 64 bits using 32 bits apps, Qt5 is using Qt4apss.
There are no devs for creating anything new.

LxPupSc-Qt-18.10

#34 Post by peebee »

Experimental

LxPupSc-Qt-18.10M-k64.iso

- Slackware Current 32-bit Woof-CE base
- LXQt desktop in ydrv
- based on Porteus Linux V4.0 LXQt module
- kernel 4.18.13 64-bit

Has lots of duplicate apps and rather over-populated menus due to adding the Porteus module to LxPupSc.

Frugal install recommended - install all of adrv, fdrv, ydrv, zdrv, puppy sfs's + initrd.gz and vmlinuz

ydrv is available separately and can be added to an LxPupSc install.

Frugal install, Compiz & CompizConfig Settings Manager installed via the Puppy Package Manager, But Not working.

I've Spent hOurs & hOurs Reading & Trying 2 Figure this Out...

Also having Trouble installing Brave Browser, it's my 9 year old Daughters Preferred Browser, I wish there were a pet or sfs package.

This ydrv:

ydrv_LxPupSc_19.04.sfs

can be added to an LxPupSc-19.04 frugal install to change the desktop to

LXQt-0.14.1

based on Qt-5.12.3

(component packages come from ArchLinux32)

as a bi-product the Qt sfs can also be added to LxPupSc or ScPup (both 32-bit) if you just want Qt capabilities:

qt5-5.12.3.sfs

This is a LXQt thread .....

Compiz is complicated ... you will need the devx installed to provide python.

Suggest you look how Compiz was started in lxpup14.02_compiz_lxp_setup.pet - it required patches to /root/.xinitrc to start compiz and emerald - and this has to be done before any other window manager starts....

I think Brave only exists in 64-bit version....

Code: Select all

CURRENTWM="`cat /etc/windowmanager`"
#start compiz =================================================================
#check for rendering type
RENDER="$(cat /etc/compiz_render)" #LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
case "$RENDER" in
Nvidia|Xgl) OPT1="" ; OPT2="" ;;
AIGLX) export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 ; OPT2="--indirect-rendering" ;;
*)echo "Good luck.." ;;
esac
#check intel driver
if [ `grep card0driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf|grep -iE "intel|i810"` ];then export INTEL_BATCH=1
fi
if [[ "$CURRENTWM" != "jwm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "icewm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "openbox" && "$CURRENTWM" != "startfluxbox" ]];then 
 if [[ `which compiz` != "" ]];then compiz --replace $OPT2 --sm-disable ccp &
 #sleep 1
 emerald --replace & 
 sleep 3
 fi
fi
#end start compiz =============================================================

ydrv for LxPupSc-19.04 updated

added a ydrv for ScPup-19.04 - bit bigger because it includes components missing from ScPup which are included in LxPupSc.....

https://sourceforge.net/projects/lxpup/ ... LXQt-ydrv/

Quite liking LXQt although it is definitely somewhat slower than LXDE presumably due to sitting on the overheads of Qt5......

May (absolutely no promises) do something similar for ScPup64 now I know what is needed.....
