[02:30] Ok, I'm missing something. I've looked over at least a dozen posts on how to create a desktop shortcut that opens qterminal and runs a command, but I can't figure it out. Is someone willing to lend a hand? [02:31] I created a .desktop file with the command, but when I double click it nothing happens. Even if I make it an executable or if I do Terminal=true [02:32] The only thing I came close to doing was creating a hidden .sh file in my home directory and having the .desktop file invoke that...but it opens in xterm [02:38] Nevermind, I got it, qterminal -e "script.sh" [02:39] Thanks all! === dsc__ is now known as dsc_ [14:07] not sure if this is the correct channel, but I'll give it a try. In 20.04.3, is there any reason that lxsession and lxsession-default-apps are not installed? Does it conflict with something else? [14:45] solerution: Those are old lxde packages. Lubuntu uses LXQt now. [14:56] kc2bez, ok, this makes sense. I asked because when I enable the openbox menu on right click (desktop preferences -> advanced -> show menus provided by WM when desktop is clicked), the menu that shows up, requires the lxsession-default-apps. [14:57] what would a recommended way to recreate this menu / or make it be in accordance with the "normal" working menu? [14:57] * ... be ? [15:00] I forgot that was still available in 20.04. Upstream LXQt disabled the WM menus in later versions so I don't think there is a solution. [15:06] aha ok, I see, thanks though :) [15:07] but I guess it would still be possible if I manually create an openbox menu file by hand to just add working shortcuts [15:08] unless there is another issue deeper that maybe prevents a process to start (?) [15:17] Creating the menus manually should work I think. [15:25] cool, thanks [16:25] [telegram] Maybe this is a basic linux question, and forgive me if it is, but after performing an apt update && upgrade, should a system be rebooted if there are only package updates/upgrades? [16:27] [telegram] Normally not [16:28] heysoundude, if the file /var/run/reboot-required exists, then yes >> cat /var/run/reboot-required ## would show: *** System restart required *** [16:28] some packages are as important as the kernel [16:30] [telegram] Ok, I generally do reboot anyway after seeing “big stuff” update/upgrade, I was just wondering if it’s necessary for everything every time. [16:31] [telegram] Thanks folks [16:31] use the gui tool to update, it shows if reboot is necessary [16:33] [telegram] The gui tool should trigger if there are updates. It doesn’t always. === genii-core is now known as genii [20:12] [telegram] LWQt would match "Light Weight Qt" and "Lightweigt Wayland Qt" 😁 (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) The X in LXQt is Xorg; but Wayland is known - https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/issues/10) [20:12] Issue 10 in lxqt/lxqt "Wayland support" [Open]
