That's good news. If LXQt were merely LXDE with a different grahics base, that'd be great. We'll see what the Razor-qt has brought with it.

Well, I hark back to the days when we only had "shutdown -h now", so that's manageable. (Heck, at first we had to shut down the cpu, then press a shutdown button on the hard-drive (5 MB) in the adjacent 19" system rack, wait 2 minutes for it to wind down, then power that off.
