## Installation of lxqt-wayland-session

Install lxqt-wayland-session by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
          -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release  \
          ..                           &&

    make install

## Configuring lxqt-wayland-session

Window Managers other than openbox-3.6.1 may be used, e.g. Xfwm4-4.20.0. Please note that IceWM-4.0.0 is not a good substitute. Fluxbox does work, although in this context (with lxqt-config-2.3.1), openbox-3.6.1 is better. The configuration file `/usr/share/lxqt/windowmanagers.conf` comes with many examples of Window Managers and the ones which are installed will appear in a drop down list of lxqt-config-session. For the ones not included in `/usr/share/lxqt/windowmanagers.conf`, you can use lxqt-config-session's "search" button, e.g. for Fluxbox-1.3.7, navigating through the file system until you can choose fluxbox.
