NAME.

       lxqt-session - Session manager of LXQt: The Lightweight Qt Desktop Environment

SYNOPSIS

       lxqt-session

DESCRIPTION

       This module handles starting applications under LXQt

       The  LXQt  modules  are  desktop-independent  tools  and operate as daemons for the local user on desktop
       specific operations.

       LXQt is an advanced, easy-to-use, and fast desktop environment based on the Qt  framework.  It  has  been
       tailored  for  users  who  value  simplicity,  speed,  and  an intuitive interface, with minimal resource
       requirements. It comprises several optional desktop components:

        * Session module (this, normally invoked by startlxqt (X11)) or by the compositor)
        * Wayland session
        * Configuration center
        * Application launcher
        * Desktop
        * Panel with optional plugins
        * Polkit authorization agent
        * SSH password access
        * Global shortcuts
        * Power management
        * Localization
        * User and system time administration
        * Sudo/su module (privilege elevation)

       These components perform similar actions to those available in  other  desktop  environments,  and  their
       names are self-descriptive.  They are usually launched automatically, when choosing a LXQt session in the
       Display Manager, except Global shortcuts which is not launched under Wayland.

BEHAVIOR

       This  application manages the LXQt session desktop behavior, module loading, and related startup programs
       prior loading the user workspace.  By default this  module  loads  the  panel,  desktop,  globalshortcut,
       runner,  notifications,  policykit, and power management modules, thus it is important for a working LXQt
       session.

AUTOSTART

       The modules are only shown by default in the LXQt desktop environment, but an  autostart  action  can  be
       created for other desktop environments.
