[Bug 1880418] Re: Secondary monitor config not working

2020-06-08 Thread Jon Atkinson
What I have seen with this bug and others is that there is a permissions
issue within the lxqt environment.  I as a user would want the ability
to save and have a separate profile for "my user" using lxqt, rather
than having to use sudo and elevated permissions to save the desired
changes, no. Doing so now fixes the change for everyone, rather than an
individual user. Thus the user who filed the bug where he make the
modification to make his mouse left-handed and it works until he reboots
and has to make the change again as the user-level change was not saved
as expected.  Thus this bug as well fits into that category.  So what I
dislike is that these bugs are coded as one-off, as they effect just one
user.  I disagree.  These bugs affect everyone and there are many left-
handed people.  Many do not want to got to the time and trouble of
filing a bug and following up with it.  Or just accept that something
does not work as expected and make the needed modification on an as
needed basis; as they know that is what they need to do in order for
them to function.  In my case I identified the bug, identified a work
around, as well identified the root source.  It would be nice that
someone collect these like bugs and classify them accordingly; then fix
the underlying permissions or missing mechanism to have a user level
config file problem in either the current and/or future versions. Else
document the work around for all to find more readily.

[Bug 1860918] Re: Lubuntu 19.10: Set mouse to left handed - defaults to right handed after a reset

2020-05-24 Thread Jon Atkinson
I would ask that someone attempt to 
   > lxqt-sudo lxqt-config
and make the change and see if the needed configuation change does indeed 
remain.

Try running the following:
  > lxqt-sudo lxqt-config
and see if your new config does indeed save

[Bug 1880418] Re: Secondary monitor config not working

2020-05-24 Thread Jon Atkinson
it appears that if I use the following:
   >lxqt-sudo lxrandr, 
the configuration will save. 

Sadly the man page for lxrandr provides no real assistance and after
some investigating came across the lxqt-sudo information in the LUBUNTU
manual. And the xorg randr via thinkwiki, I was able to assemble the
information needed.  Suggestion to provide a notification when lxrandr
is used via the gui to run it manually in the other fashion.
Additionally, there is nothing in the LUBUNTU  manual that explains the
lxranr interface.

As well the lxqt-sudo write up in the manual could provide an expansion
as to when it could be/should be used.

I would extrapolate that bug 1860918 could possible be resolved using
lxqt-sudo if the end use knew what to use with this.  I did not find a
quick 'about' button to identify the mouse and keyboard config app's
name.

[Bug 1880418] [NEW] Secondary monitor config not working

2020-05-24 Thread Jon Atkinson
Public bug reported:

Older HP laptop
using displayport to HDMI cable to use a larger secondary monitor

I need to go to ->preferences-> Monitor Settings
in order to get the 2 displays to sync

I see DP-1 and eDP-1  
DP-1 (the laptop) will display fine

eDP-1 the extended monitor's config

The position does not start in the default, thus I have to change this
to default in order for things to look similar.  (I would expect the
baseline config for "Position" on eDP-1 to be "default" and the rest of
the parameters to be "auto"

Apply

Things now appear and behave as expected

Save
(The configuration change that I have made does not appear to save via the 
"monitor settings" tool.  I have not explored finding the appropriate config 
file and manually making the needed changes.  What happens is that I need to 
repeat going into monitor settings each and every time after I have to reboot 
the machine for a patch; for my secondary display to work as desired.)
