wxldid it work did it work?00:01
krytarikwxl: Don't know, won't boot into a Live image to test that right now. :P00:02
wxlkrytarik: well that's the part i need to know i guess00:02
tsimonq2told ya :P00:02
krytarikThat's because I only have *one* machine, of course.00:09
krytarikwxl: Would tomorrow suffice still?00:10
wxlkrytarik: yes please. thank you very much!00:11
krytarikAlright then.00:11
krytarikwxl: Generally it works, it seems. :D  Only 1.) lxqt-connman-applet is not available yet; 2.) lxqt-common still removes lubuntu-core, lubuntu-default-session, lubuntu-default-settings, lubuntu-desktop, and lubuntu-live-settings, of course; and 3.) lxqt-powermanagement conflicts with xfce4-power-manager and light-locker, which should be disabled in the autostart settings, of course.  Other than that, it's pretty cool ...04:13
krytarik... already. \o/04:13
krytarikSee, it works now! :P04:13
ian||linkrytarik: yep I agree04:18
ian||linwhich is why I installed lxqt alongside mate on one of 16.04 isntalls04:18
ian||linand have a gtk 2 lxde one as well04:19
krytarikJuffEd doesn't seem to work at all though. :D04:19
ian||linkrytarik: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/juffed/+bug/150012204:19
ubot93Launchpad bug 1500122 in juffed (Ubuntu) "juffed does not display text with syntax highlighting none" [Undecided,New]04:19
ian||linis what I think that bug is that I reported04:20
krytarikCrashes on trying to open files, and doesn't display any entered text, that is.04:20
* krytarik tries04:20
krytarikHah, yep. :D04:21
ian||linalso what about getting bug email about the lxqt packages?04:33
krytarikYou mean generally?04:34
ian||linyeah as I know there is a team I am  a member of that gets it for lxde stuff04:34
krytarikI'd have to look into that.04:35
krytarikian||lin: Well, I guess they can be either added here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lxqt/+packagebugs , or to the Lubuntu one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-packaging/+packagebugs - and the link to the latter here has an excess "-team" in it, btw: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/LXDE05:28
krytarik"https://code.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-art/lubuntu-artwork/quantal" - can we fix the "quantal" bit now?  It's slightly disconcerting. :P16:45
krytarikTo be clear, that's the "trunk" series branch.16:45
phillwkrytarik: for lubuntu iso lxqt bugs please use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt#Reporting_Bugs An effort is to be made to get some serious triaging done, Julien is miles behind and wxl has added it to bug triaging part of the Google-In tasks17:44
phillwkrytarik: as quantal is EoL I would not expect to see any alterations to that project.17:46
krytarikphillw: Like I indicated, that's the *current* branch.17:48
phillwkrytarik: ahh, okies.. Once rafael has his b/band back he and Julien can look into it :)17:53
krytarikwxl: So for a working, non-bloated LXQt experience on top of Lubuntu 16.04, I'd suggest something like this: "sudo apt-get install lximage-qt lxqt-about lxqt-admin lxqt-common lxqt-config lxqt-globalkeys lxqt-notificationd lxqt-openssh-askpass lxqt-panel lxqt-policykit lxqt-powermanagement lxqt-qtplugin lxqt-runner lxqt-session lxqt-sudo pcmanfm-qt qterminal qupzilla".17:57
phillwkrytarik: until julien has the meta-package added to the repo, I'd suggest using the ppa.17:58
krytarikphillw: Well, see the backlog of earlier here.17:59
phillwhe will amend the wiki page once it is in xenial and we no longer need to add the ppa.17:59
phillwkrytarik: http://pastebin.com/9LAXRs1E18:01
phillwuntil then, easiest way is use the ppa :)18:01
phillwI've only done the install onto netboot one. I switch to Xenial in first couple of days of New Year following the Alpha 1 release on my production machine and will also add a couple of new VM's as milestone ones to play with lxqt on as an additional DE18:06
wxlyou're my hero, krytarik18:14
krytarik\o/18:14
wxlkrytarik: other than the gotchas you mentioned, everything seems to Just Work™ or did you need to do anything else?18:15
wxli.e. just do that, logout and select the lxqt session? or does it remove the other sessions just leaving you one?18:16
krytarikWell, removing Firefox might be easiest. :P18:16
wxlright right18:16
wxlalthough i bet qupzilla makes itself default18:16
krytarikYep, just leaving LXQt and the Openbox one.18:17
krytarikwxl: Nope, wasn't quite that easy. :D18:17
wxlkrytarik: tell me more18:17
krytarikSec.18:17
krytarikwxl: Basically, set it as the default in the LXQt settings, and this as well: http://askubuntu.com/a/46792018:20
krytarik(And I had to create "~/.local/share/applications" first.)18:21
wxlahhh fooey18:22
wxlkrytarik: does firefox work without adding qupzilla?18:23
krytarikwxl: Yeah - other than the most recent versions of being unusable for me. :P18:24
krytarik+ it18:24
wxlok then18:25
krytarik(Anything later than version 39, to be exact.)18:25
wxlbut the qt parts Just Work™?18:25
krytarikYep.18:25
wxlk great. thanks a ton dude!18:25
krytarikAlthough I did notice a slight display flicker on my system anytime I start a GUI app.18:26
krytarikBut I'm guessing that's just me.18:27
wxlyeah could be some graphics issue. this is on hardware or vm?18:27
krytarikMemory footprint was like 300 MB. :D18:27
krytarik+ btw18:27
wxloooh18:27
krytarikNope, real hardware.18:28
krytarikIt's like 14 years old by now, so... :D18:28
wxloh well there's that :)18:28
krytarikwxl: Oh, and one might want to mention that you can make the GTK+ apps look less ugly (i.e. not use Raleigh) by setting the theme with "lxappearance".18:33
krytarikAlso, use the logout option from the menu, since the panel one will be gone after install. :P18:36
krytarik(In the old Lubuntu session, that is.)18:37
wxlright right18:37
wxlthanks again!18:37
krytarikSure.18:37
krytarikIt was fun. :D18:38
wxli'm super glad to hear it18:38
wxlyou going to continue to use it?18:38
krytarikWell, with the flickering, certainly not yet. :P18:38
wxloh bah18:39
krytarikOther than that, I was looking forward to try it, yep.18:39
krytarikAnd like I said, it works really nice already, otherwise.18:42
krytarikwxl: But QupZilla was set as the default in the 'alternatives' system indeed - that didn't quite suffice though.18:55
wxlbut it didn't even create an icon?18:55
krytarikSure it did.18:56
krytarikBut that doesn't help much if you click links, of course.18:57
wxlsorry i mean a menu option18:57
krytarikYep, I got that.18:58
wxland changing in lxqt-default-whatever doesn't do the trick18:58
wxl?18:58
krytarikNope - not sure what that helped anyway.19:00
wxlhuh ok19:00
wxlif you outright remove firefox before doing anything else, does that work?19:00
krytarikShould yes, didn't though - because I wanted to have fun. :P19:01
wxli know that feeling!19:01
krytarikEasy way?  Nope! :D19:01
wxlkind of like when i deleted /etc19:02
krytarikhahaha19:02
* tsimonq2 uninstalled network drivers once21:58
tsimonq2my advice, never use wildcard when you are doing apt remove21:58
tsimonq2or *21:58
Kamilionespecally not with -y22:06
tsimonq2that's what I did22:07
Kamilioni figured ;)22:07
tsimonq2I did sudo apt -y remove package1* package2* etc22:07
Kamilionwxl: so, I, too, lxqt'd.22:14
Kamiliondesktop background / root window doesn't refresh when i change monitor resolution.22:14
wxlignoring that for a moment, was your experience the same as krytarik, Kamilion ?22:16
KamilionI fixed it by opening the control center, stopping the desktop, and starting it again.22:16
Kamilionhttp://puu.sh/lQQYG/1f9930ac4e.png22:16
Kamilionother than that, you can see the result of my exploration.22:16
Kamilionwxl: I have to open my log files to get at some of that scrollback22:17
Kamilionbut qupzilla seems to work quite nicely.22:18
wxlKamilion: would you confirm his directions?22:21
krytarikKamilion: Or, http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2015/12/10/%23lubuntu-devel.html22:23
Kamilionthanks krytarik22:26
krytarikSure.22:27
Kamilion"sudo apt-get install lximage-qt lxqt-about lxqt-admin lxqt-common lxqt-config lxqt-globalkeys lxqt-notificationd lxqt-openssh-askpass lxqt-panel lxqt-policykit lxqt-powermanagement lxqt-qtplugin lxqt-runner lxqt-session lxqt-sudo pcmanfm-qt qterminal qupzilla"  <-- I used "lxqt-metapackage openbox qupzilla obconf lubuntu-artwork" from the netinstall64 xenial media.22:28
krytarikKamilion: That's intended to be installed without the PPA though.22:28
Kamilionoh?22:29
Kamilionooh.22:29
krytarikAnd the metapackage isn't in the offical repos yet.22:29
KamilionI know that much.22:29
krytarikYar.22:29
Kamilionso it's just the missing metapackage and theme from mainline repos?22:29
Kamilionthe actual application/lib packages are already in main?22:30
krytarik* official22:30
krytarikAnd what do you mean by "mainline"?22:31
Kamilionnot using any ppas22:31
tsimonq2AKA official repos22:31
krytarikThe first isn't even in Debian yet, ftm.22:31
Kamilioni suppose that could get confusing to people working on the kernel22:31
tsimonq2+122:31
Kamilionhm, lemme fire up synaptic and have it tell me where it got the packages from22:32
Kamilionoh -- one other note22:32
Kamilionit seems to want gksu for pcmanfm's "Open as Root" to work.22:32
krytarikRight, that's why it's listed in the Debian one.22:33
Kamilionwhat is listed where?22:33
Kamilion"It's" listed in "the debian one" ?22:33
krytarik'gsku'.22:33
krytarikWait.22:34
Kamilion'one'?22:34
Kamilion"gksu is listed in the debian package's recommends/depends already, but not in the ubuntu package." ?22:34
krytarikhttp://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-lxqt/lxqt-metapackages.git/tree/debian/control22:34
krytarikYep - well, not in the PPA one.22:35
KamilionOh, I had no idea this was going upstream to debian first22:35
wxlKamilion: that's the canonical (hehehe) plan22:35
krytarikThough, since August :P - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=79580322:36
ubot93Debian bug 795803 in wnpp "ITP: lxqt-metapackages -- Metapackage for LXQt" [Wishlist,Open]22:36
Kamilionthat's actually super good to hear, I was gonna be messing with Jessie sometime soon22:36
Kamilionthat link's just the metapackage -- are the rest of the packages already in the archive?22:37
krytarikYep.22:37
KamilionWow. Awesomesauce.22:37
krytarikIndeed.22:37
KamilionI havn't really been tracking lxqt recently22:37
Kamilionmainly because my vmware workstation install has been acting up22:38
Kamilioni finally just gave up and installed it on an esxi VM22:39
Kamilionsomewhere around 5 or 6 this morning22:39
Kamiliononly real major I run into is the desktop root window not resizing when the monitor size changes.22:39
wxlKamilion: make a bug22:39
wxlnow you can use launchpad to do it!22:39
wxllike a normal package22:39
Kamilionhttp://puu.sh/lQSJv/df05224333.png22:40
KamilionThe fix was to 'stop' and 'start' Desktop, here.22:40
wxlman that looks fscking hot22:40
* wxl really loves the look of qt22:41
Kamilionyeah, this is really going to make things easier on my staff22:41
Kamilionit's a lot more XP/7 like, which is what they're "used to"22:41
wxlyep22:41
Kamilionthe only thing still missing for me is Win7 style taskbar icons22:41
Kamilionbut this is QT; that should be relatively trivial22:42
