But, if you read the 'tea leaves' this desktop lineage is on the move, and devs are few and very limited to support several trunks. > I am not a LXDE user so I am not quite sure what the "run" item is.

Dude, lxde is dead; there just is no scheduled funeral announce until lxqt is more feature rich, *imho*. ymmv. > Good luck. > Michael > [3] http://blog.lxde.org/?p=1310 I read this. I see no commitment to lxde long term. He is newly installing, so lxde is probably a bad choice, if he intends to use it for a few years. ymmv. Futhermore is Weyland in his sights? Dunno, but that seems to be the target, with qt5 resource utilization.
