lxqt/lxqt-wayland-session

No panel or desktop when the compositor's full path is used

Closed this issue · 8 comments

After installed lxqt-wayland-session, and start lxqt(wayland) form sddm, It looks like I login labwc, no desktop and lxqt-panel.
I can start lxqt-session by following script file made by you( I comment out something)
startlxqtlabwc.txt

If you try just startlxqtwayland from tty what errors do you get?

Please see the following log.txt

by the way, black screen is beacuse I didn't install the screen background progame like swaybg.

Those are all errors of labwc. It looks like you didn't choose any compositor in "Session Settings" yet, so it should load only lxqt-config-session and a notification about choosing a compositor.

Please see the video of choosing compositor

If you add just "labwc" in the dropdown, without searching for it? Have to look what happens with the full path (e.g. /usr/bin/labwc) in the script, could be messy.

Confirmed, using full path creates this issue. Will look into it later, thanks for reporting. Anyway: all installed compositor appear in the dropdown, so there is no need for searching supported compositors.

It's quite simple what happened: the string /usr/bin/labwc wasn't recognised as valid compositor and it fell back to default labwc with or without ~/.config/labwc/ .

Thanks, Worked for me
