OK, glad to hear that, but if you were following the gist of it, you **might** be able to upgrade to the
newest LTS . . . and then simply add "lxde" . . . and you would have the tried and true, but
"olden" "lxde" GUI, stacked on the freshest LTS??
It might be as simple as "sudo apt install lxde" . . . but it might be something like
"sudo apt install lxde-desktop-environment" ??? If you looked in synaptic it might show
you how it would like to be commanded.
But possibly the difference between "lxde" and what is offered now, "lxqt desktop" might
be minimal and provide extended support, over the choice for "lxde"??? The great joy of all
flavors linux is almost unlimited choices and any choice made can be changed, etc.
I like to run a build that stays close to the defaults, but I'm likely to end
up finding a way to keep LXDE going in perpetuity - unless there are security
issues with it. It's a pretty mature DE and hopefully I can keep it going.
I've tried LXQt and, well, I didn't find it appealing. I'll continue to test
it, as time allows.
LXDE helps me make things simple and elegant, so that I can get a DE like this
pretty easily:

Meh... Maybe I'm just old and stuck in my ways. I'll keep LXQt in mind and test
it again soon.
