Razor Qt, a new lightweight desktop environment that uses Qt, has reached version 0.4.1.

The new version brings 3 new components: razor-policykit, razor-power (power management tool) and razor-autosuspend (a tool to suspend/wake-up laptops on Lid events or power status events) as well as some panel improvements:

the panel can be moved

configurable panel width and height

the clock now uses a new simple calendar

XDG autostart and Razor-qt autostart feature improved

Session: limit auto-repeat attempts when application crashes frequently

many minor updates and improvements

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:razor-qt/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install razorqt

For some reason, the Razor Qt configuration tool is not installed when installing Razor Qt, but you can install it manually using the following command:

sudo apt-get install razorqt-config

Then log out and then select Razor Desktop (with the desired WM) from the login screen.Also see our initial post: Razor-Qt - A New Lightweight Desktop Environment Based On Qt
