[10:56] <Deano59> where does LXQt store it's settings?
[11:38] <kc2bez> Deano59: Most user settings get stored in `~/.config`
[15:19] <Deano59> my settings aren't sticking after a reboot. I copied over: lxqt.conf and lxqt-config-appearance.conf but every-time I reboot or logout, I have to manually select openbox and my shortcuts are reset too.
[15:24] <Deano59> can I fix that somehow? :D
[17:26] <Deano59> no one? or should I ask in #ubuntu?
[17:26] <Maik> or read the manual?
[17:27] <Maik> https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/
[17:43] <kc2bez[m]> I don't have a good answer Deano59:  the only thing I can think is the defaults overwrite the user data.
[17:44] <kc2bez[m]> I can say that upstream doesn't advise manually updating configuration files. They suggest using the GUI tools.
[17:44] <Deano59> gui tools?
[17:44] <Maik> Graphic User Interface tools
[17:45] <kc2bez[m]> Right, the lxqt settings from the menu
[17:45] <Deano59> it wasn't manually updated. I took lxqt.conf and the other from a working system. THEN copied over to another system; before lxqt booted.
[17:45] <Deano59> Maik: I know what gui tools is lol
[17:45] <Maik> Deano59: then be more clear
[17:46] <Maik> a lot is mentioned in the manual i guess :)
[17:47] <Deano59> which setting actually applies the openbox etc? what's the conf file called?
[17:49] <kc2bez[m]> `~/.config/openbox/lxqt-rc.xml`
[17:51] <Deano59> should that be in ~/.config/lxqt too?
[17:52] <kc2bez[m]> No
[17:59] <Deano59> then it must auto delete itself because I always have to select openbox.
[18:04] <krytarik> Deano59: Do you even log in to the "Lubuntu" session?
[18:08] <Deano59> nah, lxqt.
[18:09] <Deano59> Maik: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cmpNcv4Dvy/
[18:10] <Deano59> Maik: the manual doesn't help but thanks.
[18:54] <Deano59> ugh, what the?! unplugged my external hdd. rebooted, and was never asked to confirm openbox. :/
