The LXQt development team has released version 2.2.2 of lxqt-panel, marking a significant update for users of this lightweight desktop environment. This new version brings several enhancements and bug fixes aimed at improving user experience and functionality.
Notably, the update introduces an automatic mount popup feature specifically for Wayland, although this feature is disabled by default to avoid a known issue with QtWayland. Additionally, the team has resolved a rare bug affecting permanent task buttons when used with kwin_wayland. Users will also benefit from improved visibility of current screen windows within the wlroots taskbar and enhanced search capabilities in the backend, now allowing for case-insensitive queries. The README file has also been updated to include backend information.
LXQt users can download the latest version, lxqt-panel 2.2.2, from the project's GitHub repository.
Looking ahead, the LXQt team is likely to continue refining their software, focusing on further enhancing compatibility with Wayland and optimizing user interface elements. As the development of LXQt progresses, users can expect ongoing improvements that will streamline their desktop experience and provide new features that meet the evolving needs of the community
