Re: Which version of LXDE do I have?

Ah, thanks for that. Both lxde and lxde-core show as v9 for me, but there is also an lxde-common (LXDE common configuration files) which shows as v0.99.2-3 in Synaptic, which makes sense. That was the answer I was looking for. Thanks for your help! :) EDIT: Darn, I just noticed that I was reading th...

Re: Which version of LXDE do I have?

Thanks for that seppalta . Indeed, I am aware of the impending change to LXQt, but I'm not sure if it is due out in Lubuntu 18.04 LTS or not. I would have assumed that, being such a radical change, it wouldn't be released with an LTS version, which is normally reserved for well tested and very stabl...

Re: Which version of LXDE do I have?

Just a gentle bump here. Can anyone answer this question for me please? I'm hoping to get things put in place before the next major release of Lubuntu, and it would be very helpful for my own documentation efforts to know what version of LXDE I'm running, and how to tell the difference. Thanks.

Re: LXDE - Desktop Folder or Home Folder in Panel?

My initial reply can be improved upon by placing the new code block(s) within the Config { } block, moving the system { } block down, like this... Plugin { type=menu Config { image=/usr/share/lubuntu/images/lubuntu-logo.png item { image = ~/.themes/path/to/icon.png name = My Pictures action = pcmanf...

Re: LXDE - Desktop Folder or Home Folder in Panel?

I have added a "My Documents", "My Music", "My Pictures" etc link to my main panel in LXPanel, to simulate a more Windows XP-like environment. I don't know if this is the proper, approved method of doing it, but here's what I did to achieve this. I edited the file ~/.co...

Which version of LXDE do I have?

I've been using Linux since about 2008, and have been using Lubuntu for most of that time. Before the next LTS version comes out in April 2018, I am trying to standardise my systems somewhat, and in doing so I am building my own, private knowledgebase using Tiddlywiki. During this process, I am docu...
