[SOLVED] LXQT Broken.

[winter linden]

I reinstalled lxqt many times and it was still broken.

[visual pewter]

Did you install xorg xorg-xinit xorg-xrandr??

[winter linden]

Yes

[visual pewter]

Install xcb-util-cursor and reboot.

[winter linden]

Still doesnt work.

[visual pewter]

Run echo "exec startlxqt" > ~/.xinitrc and after that run startx

[winter linden]

As root or normal user.

[winter linden]

Okay so, root works but when i try using a regular user account, it is broken.

[visual pewter]

Just normal user.

[visual pewter]

Output of ls -alh ~/.Xauthority??

[visual pewter]

Run rm ~/.Xauthority and try again startx!

[visual pewter]

Why are you in TTY3??

[winter linden]

TTY1 is taken up by lightdm (login)

[visual pewter]

Does that not work??

[winter linden]

When i login to lightdm it goes black, shows a cursor, and then throws me back to the login screen

[visual pewter]

Show me lightdm screen.

[winter linden]

Okay

[hallow lintel]

MAYBE try dbus-run-session startlxqt

[visual pewter]

Switch tty and disable Lightdm sudo systemctl disable lightdm and reboot.

[hallow lintel]

maybe try with sudo

[visual pewter]

What gpu you have??

[winter linden]

Integrated graphics

[visual pewter]

Output of lspci -k | grep -A 3 -E "(VGA|3D)"??

[visual pewter]

Output of pacman -Qs intel-media-driver??

[visual pewter]

Okay, install XFCE to see if it's an issue with LXQT. Run sudo pacman -S xfce4 xfce4-goodies xorg xorg-xinit

[winter linden]

Installed

[visual pewter]

Run startxfce4

[winter linden]

Seems fine now

[visual pewter]

So it's an issue with LXQT.

[winter linden]

Yeah

[visual pewter]

Open the terminal and check the output of pacman -Qs xdg-desktop-portal-lxqt??

[winter linden]

It just. Fixed itsself?

[visual pewter]

No, it was something from XFCE that LXQt needed.

[winter linden]

Ohh.

[SOLVED] LXQT Broken.

[winter linden]
