Linux: The Ultimate Guide

Binary Packages
Official binary packages are offered by all major Linux and BSD shares. 
Just use package manager to search for lxqt-globalkeys.
Usage
Windows administrators can provide shortcuts and also their range 
may exceed one of the lxqt-global keys in LXQt sessions. It resulted in a 
warning message “Global shortcut C + A + d + cannot be registered,” see 
https://github .com /lxqt /lxqt /issues /1032. As shown in this version, lxqt-
notificationd will display a warning in the event of such a conflict. Users 
can decide if they want the said shortcut handled by the appropriate win-
dow manager lxqt-globalkeys keys.
lxqt-globalkeys
Daemon-like lxqt-globalkeysd can be modified from the “Basic Settings” 
section in the LXQt Session Settings session setting for lxqt-session. 
Configuration dialog “Global Activity Manager” (binary lxqt-config-glo-
balkey shortcuts) used to customize shortcuts can be opened in the main 
menu panel – Preferences – LXQt Settings – Shortcut Keys and provided 
by the lxqt-config Setup Center.
lxqt-notification
Lxqt-notificationd is the use of the LXQt daemon according to the Desktop 
Notifications Specification. This specification explains how to display 
notifications in pop-up windows on desktops. Notices like these are fre-
quently used in chat or email clients to notify incoming messages, media 
players to signal the start of another track but also on the desktop itself 
to indicate volume changes or the like. Lxqt-notificationd combines dual

Linux 
lxqt-notificationd and lxqt-config-notificationd. Lxqt-notificationd works 
in a similar way to a daemon called the LXQt Module and performs a real 
function. The “Desktop Notifications” GUI, binary lxqt-config-notifica-
tiond, is used to customize notifications. Lxqt-notificationd uses version 
1.2 of this expression.
lxqt-qtplugin
This repository provides library libqtlxqt to integrate Qt and LXQt. With 
this plugin, all Qt-based programs can use LXQt settings, as a thumbnail 
theme. Official Binary Packages are offered by all major Linux compo-
nents such as Arch Linux, Debian (like Debian stretch only), Fedora, and 
-openSUSE. Just use your package manager to search for the lxqt-qtplugin 
character unit.
lxqt-panel
The LXQt panel is the default bar at the bottom of your screen. The panel 
contains an application menu, desktop switch, instant launch bar, task bar, 
system tray containing applets, and clock. The panel is highly customiz-
able with several settings and plugins detailed in the customization sec-
tion and also contains how to add or remove apples.
lxqt-runner
Lxqt-runner provides GUI from desktop and allows application launch or 
program shutdown. The calculation function is also used. Technically, it 
contains a binary lxqt-runner. Binary is used similarly to a daemon called 
the LXQt Module and delivers the GUI on hitting the default keyboard 
shortcut.
lxqt-session
Repository lxqt-session provides tools for handling LXQt sessions. First 
there is the lxqt-session session manager. Binary was introduced at the 
beginning of the LXQt session and is responsible for introducing and 
monitoring all the other components that make up the sessions. The GUI 
“LXQt Session Settings” (lxqt-config-session binary) is used to adjust 
various settings that affect the session, e.g., any windows manager can 
use any applications that should start automatically. Binary lxqt-leve is 
about interrupting or interrupting times. It comes with a few options that 
reflect the action we are starting, e.g., --leave, --hibernate, --reable, or 
--restart.
