Dear Maintainer,


on a fresh install of debian with only lxqt the session can't start and X restart
if you install xfce4 + lxqt you can connet with lxqt session
if you purge light-locker you can't connect anymore

It seems that i got problem (core dump) when lxqt-screensaver start and if light-locker is installed is first autostart and block lxqt-screensaver.

so my solution is to install both xfce4 ans lxqt and use lightm and not sddm.

Hi Bertrand,

Thank you for your information. May I know if you did the fresh
installed debian with D-I image or Debian Live image or something
else?

Would you mind to provide more details on the steps?

Best regards,
-Andrew
