So I recently switched over from KDE to LXQT w/ Labwc (using labwc for speed, window snapping, wayland) and really enjoy it but I have a few things that I wish I could figure out:

1. dual monitor setup, my primary monitor has the desktop and icons, but the second monitor is just a blank labwc screen. The right click menu only displays properly on the main screen (shows labwc menu on the second), is there a way to extend the desktop to a second screen (background & menu)?

2. trying to find the command to bind for the menu button and windows key, found runner so that's half the battle.

3. monitor sleep, what are you folks using and where are you placing it? Currently I have wlopm toggling the monitor on/off with a key combo but it would be nice for auto sleep if I forget.

If you have any nice key combos or hacks to make the desktop better please share them, like I said I'm just digging into LXQT w/ labwc so I'll take anything I can get.

Thanks, ChCat

Updating my laptop (LXQT w/ labwc for wayland) and desktop (KDE) to testing and I'm running into a possible issue with my desktop. I update sources and ran update/upgrade but I have 662 packages that are not updating as per unmet dependencies. Can someone confirm that testing KDE is sitting with unmet dependencies or should I look at reloading my system? I ran both these systems with stable for a while then decided to update.

Thanks, ChCat

Hey all,

I know this is a bit off topic but the places I see these electronics ideas are mainly radio YouTube channels. I want to start off by making something simple like a battery box, but honestly I don't know where to go to learn the basics behind it like how to charge, figuring out what type/size battery I should get, etc as I don't have an electronics background. I am a ham with a technicians ticket who is relearning everything after taking 2yrs off due to family issues. If you fine folks could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.
