Request MX-23: LXQT [Solved]

[mklym]

No issues at this point, other than the missing icon issue. No smoke, no lock-ups, no crashes.
I am playing around with MX23AHSRC1 on a CF-31 Toughbook I am gifting to a deceased friends son as he joins the workforce.
I will get back to the unit with the LXQT DE once the 31 is ready to go.
Thanks.

A bit OT but I find it sad that the op can't be bothered (as requested by the person who spent time building the deb packages) to provide feedback for an app they requested. (Not for the first time either).

Kudos to mklym for filling the void.

I can not speak about the OP's character so I can not make a judgement like that.

I can say that life can change in a matter of moments sometimes.

Price of oil became less than bottled water, my job vanished overnight. No work locally so drifted around taking whatever work I could find. Had no internet access for almost 4 months. Following up on posts made to a forum was low on my To Do list when I did get access.

Last year about this time, I was out walking my dog and was assaulted with a weapon, very lucky to have survived. Took weeks to get my head cleared from the blows to my head.

Could be a good reason the OP has not replied with feedback.

Or he could be a flake.

Time will let us know.

This is a follow-up post. Going forward, if I have any issues with LXQT I will start a new thread in the appropriate section of the forum.

The one issue I noticed with LXQT upon initial install was that a couple icons were missing from the system bar. It was the MX Updater and volume (I think but cannot remember for sure) icon. The volume, or whatever, showed up on a reboot and for the MX Updater icon I went into the Preferences and changed the icon style from wireframe w/a green and a black icon, to wireframe w/a green and white icon. Now I have a white wireframe box when there are no updates and a green box when there are updates.

I have tried the suspend and hibernate functions and both work OOTB. The screen brightness dims and brightens as it did w/windose. Bluetooth connects to my mouse and speaker w/o any issues. If they are both turned on when I boot the laptop, they both connect automatically when I get to the desktop. VLC plays 1080p racing videos w/o issues. No issues with the networks, although I have not had a chance to test the WWAN, but I do not expect problems as it shows up in the QSI. All in all it seems good.
