lxqt-wayland-session

Files needed for the LXQt Wayland Session: Wayland session start script, its desktop entry for display managers and default configurations for actually supported compositors which are:

  • Stacking WMs

    • Labwc (version 0.7.2 and higher)
    • Wayfire
    • kwin_wayland

  • Tiling Wms

    • Hyprland
    • Niri
    • river
    • Sway

At startup a basic configuration file for those compositors will be copied to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/lxqt/wayland directory if not existing already, except for labwc and kwin_wayland where their default configuration location is used. If no compositor is already set in lxqt-config-session Labwc will be started opening "Session Settings".

Please refer to each compositors documentation for tweaking.

Other compositors

Any compositor which supports at least wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1 and (for taskbar)wlr-foreign-toplevel-management-unstable-v1 protocols should work. A line lxqt-session && <exit_compositor_command> is needed in the autostart configuration of the compositor.

Compiling source code

Runtime dependencies are qtxdg-tools, lxqt-session and layer-shell-qt. Additional build dependencies are lxqt-build-tools, CMake and optionally Git to pull latest VCS checkouts.

Code configuration is handled by CMake. CMake variable CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX has to be set to /usr on most operating systems.

To build run make, to install make install which accepts variable DESTDIR as usual.
