Does LXQt use Openbox?
LXQt uses Openbox as its default window manager.
Is LXQt better than XFCE?
LXQt and LXDE are lighter than Xfce, but that’s only one part of the story. With enough effort, Xfce can feel like a more modern desktop environment. The primary difference between LXQt and Xfce is that LXQt uses Qt rather than GTK+. If you prefer GTK+, you’re better off using Xfce.
You can edit the xml file there. But it is recommended to copy it in your home folder ~/.local/share/lubuntu/openbox/menu.xml and edit there. Take a look at this page about LXDE menus. There is also a Java application which can be used for editing LXDE menus. It called LXMED and can be found on it’s project page on sourceforge.net
What’s the difference between LXDE and LXQt desktops?
Whether you use LXDE or LXQt, their goals are the same: to provide a lightweight desktop for users who either need it or just prefer it, with minimal setup or configuration required. These are drop-in desktops for any Linux or BSD system, whether it’s 15 years old, or a new Raspberry Pi, or a hefty workstation that was just assembled.
Can you install LXQt as a default desktop?
You may find LXQt or LXDE included your distribution’s software repository, or you can download and install a distribution that ships LXQt or LXDE as a default desktop. Before you do, though, be aware that an LX* desktop is meant to provide a full desktop experience, so many applications are installed along with the desktop.
Which is the best text editor for LXDE?
There’s a text editor, an excellent file manager called PCManFM on LXDE and PCManFM-Qt on LXQt, configuration panels, a terminal, theme settings, and so on. The goal, aside from being light on resources, is to be intuitive, and these desktops excel at that.
