.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.B startlxqt
|
||
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
\fBstartlxqt\fR is a shell script meant to initialize and launch LXQt sessions.
|
||
|
|
It is as such similar to counterparts of other desktop environments like startlxde in
|
||
|
|
LXDE or startkde in KDE.
|
||
|
|
.P
|
||
|
|
It's main tasks are exporting environment variables, partly after performing
|
||
|
|
corresponding checks, and launching \fBlxqt-session\fR, the LXQt session manager.
|
||
|
|
.P
|
||
|
|
It is not meant to be run by users.
|
||
|
|
Rather, it is invoked as backend, e. g. by script \fBstartx\fR on virtual terminals or display
|
||
|
|
managers like SDDM or LightDM, see section \fIEXAMPLE\fR.

Display managers are making use of scripts like \fBstartlxqt\fR automatically. Information about
|
||
|
|
available desktop environments is provided by files \fI$XDG_DATA_DIRS/xsessions/*.desktop\fR, typically
|
||
|
|
\fI/usr/share/xessions/*.desktop\fR.
