i'm not sure, but i suspect it is a feature of a barebones desktop setup. i'm not sure if there are task bars that you add to those or what. sorry, not too familiar with xfce or lxqt, but i do run lightdm and MATE and that does give you a menu bar. if you want more you add it to the panels or if you want multiple desktops you add those too. so, um, i'm guessing you gotta add them yourself. do right clicks on the top, right, left, bottom or middle show options? do they change based upon where you are? what do the docs say? songbird
