Yeah, I'm hip. I'm _fairly_ certain it's lxdm that's at fault. There
are a lot of things on the web regarding this issue. If you get a
chance, you might try using lightdm as the display manager and see if
that buys you anything.

Although the OP just wanted to see if LXQt would work on an old laptop
he had. I don't think it's critical, but it would be nice to know what
it is. If it is lxdm, it could affect other desktops.
