✨ lxqt-leave ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the manual page for lxqt-leave from the LXQt Session Module and it's genuinely so useful 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

lxqt-leave β€” the little dialog that lets you pick logout, reboot, shutdown, suspend, hibernate, and lock screen. yes. all of them. one button each. iconic behaviour honestly πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

lxqt-leave [argument]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so lxqt-leave is a graphical Qt tool whose whole entire job is making it easy to trigger your leave-session actions: logout, reboot, shutdown, hibernate, and lock screen. that's it. that's the vibe. ✨

here's the part you need to know though, fr fr: if you run it with an argument, the dialog does not show up and the action just happens directly. no popup, no "are you sure", just boom, done. 🫒

⚠️ okay wait, tiny exception, don't panic: that direct-execute thing only happens unless "Ask for confirmation" is checked in lxqt-config-session. if that box is ticked, it's gonna ask you anyway. so like… check your settings before you blame the program, bestie 😭

πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

here's everything you can throw at it:

  • --logout β€” yeet yourself out of the session
  • --lockscreen β€” lock the screen, keep everything running
  • --suspend β€” go to sleep mode, lowkey
  • --hibernate β€” full deep sleep, save everything to disk energy
  • --shutdown β€” power all the way down
  • --reboot β€” restart era
  • --help β€” help me help you
  • --version β€” tell you what version you're on

πŸ› REPORTING BUGS πŸ›

found a bug? not me ignoring it πŸ™ˆ go tell the devs at https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt-session/issues β€” they actually want to know, no cap.
