I installed LXDM and LightDM, I couldn’t login from the DM in either cases, so I decided to run LXQt using startx which worked, except I couldn’t sudo from the terminal emulator inside LXQt, while I was able to sudo normally in tty, I’ve tried enabling elogind, nothing changed, my user is in the wheel group and my system is up to date

    What does “doesn’t allow sudo” mean? Did you get an error that provided a reason? What exactly did you do?

        But what does. Be specific. Are you prompted on the CLI or is there a pop-up window that you’re entering credentials into?

    What shell are you running in your terminal? If I’m remembering correctly, it’s recommended to set the shells during the installation, so that could be the issue here.

      Both bash and fish are returning incorrect password upon trying to execute any command with sudo

        Interesting, could also be the tty. If it’s causing you a lot of trouble, you might want to just reinstall.

    I dont use neither void and neither x11, but that seems like a common thing that should be mentioned in the docs? i think

          I’ve tried

          exec dbus-run-session -- startlxqt

          Nothing changed

          I also tried

          exec lxqt-session

          It ran a broken session with no panel, I tried to sudo from there but it also said incorrect password
