LXQt 0.7.0 released

 

 

The LXDE and Razor-qt teams are proud to announce LXQt 0.7.0, the first release of LXQt, the Qt Lightweight Desktop Environment. This beta release is considered a stable continuation of the Razor desktop.

 

It has been almost a year since the Razor-qt project and the LXDE-Qt project decided to merge. Since then, the LXQt desktop has been under active development by 13 developers and dozens of contributors and translators.

 

"The Linux community sees many forks but never any merges."

The merge has been praised by a lot of members of this community. The Maui Project has joined our efforts in creating a better Qt desktop and together we hope to focus less on our differences and more on what we share.

The KDE Project has, in their efforts in building the modular KDE Frameworks, opened new doors for Qt developers working with desktop libraries. KF5 libraries may soon power some LXQt components!

In the same spirit, I would like other desktops to consider this an open invitation to come and talk to us about how we could benefit from each other's work.

 

Since the last release of Razor-qt (0.5.2), the desktop has had serious overall polishing and hundreds of bug fixes, as well as a host of new features including:

- The inclusion of PCManFM-Qt, the Qt port of LXDE's desktop and file manager

- An all-new modular architecture, allowing users and maintainers to easily swap out components of the desktop for third party apps.

- Several improvements to the system settings along with the inclusion of screens management, keyboard settings and file associations.

- Improvements to cursor and appearance settings

- Improved support for systemd-based setups

- Ongoing work on Qt 5 compatibility. Most of our components already build on Qt 5!

- Ongoing work on Wayland support. Some components, including PCManFM-Qt, can run on Wayland if QtWayland is available.

- A new obconf-qt tool, for Openbox users (released separately)

- A new compton-conf tool, for Compton users (released separately)

- Several performance improvements

- Experimental Raspberry Pi support

- Partial FreeBSD support

 

Existing LXDE users will be happy to hear that the GTK version of LXDE will not be discontinued for the time being. While several developers have shifted their focus on LXQt, classic LXDE will continue being maintained as long as there are developers still working on it.

The LXDE and LXQt developers

 

 

TL;DR:

- Το κλασσικό LXDE με GTK δεν σταμάτησε, απλά έχει περάσει στο περιθώριο.

- Συνεργάζονται και με το Maui Project, που φτιάχνει το Hawaii (κι αυτό σε Qt).

- Προσπαθούν να πατήσουν πάνω στο Qt 5 και ίσως χρησιμοποιήσουν κάποιες βιβλιοθήκες από τα KF5 όταν αυτά γίνουν διαθέσιμα.

- Συνεχίζουν να βελτιώνουν τη συμβατότητα με το Wayland.

- Έχουν ξεχωριστό site από το κλασσικό LXDE.

- Διάφορα άλλα ενδιαφέροντα: Improved support for systemd-based setups, Experimental Raspberry Pi support, Partial FreeBSD support...

 

Καλά το πάνε.

Things that drive me nuts about OpenGL

 

(Απο τον Rich Geldreich)

 

Δίκιο έχει και καλά τα λέει αλλά για να διορθωθεί αυτό το πρόβλημα το OpenGL πρέπει να σχεδιαστεί από την αρχή αφού πεταχτεί όλη η σαβούρα. Και μεταξύ μας η Valve δεν είναι θερμή σε ένα καινούριο και μοντέρνο API σε αντίθεση με τα υπόλοιπα μέλη του Khronos group.
