Looks like this is also already reported upstream: https://sourceforge.net/p/lxde/bugs/704/
** Tags added: regression-update ** Description changed: - I am using the Lubuntu daily builds PPA: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net - /lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-daily/ubuntu trusty main - - Apologies if this is the wrong place to log this. - Run LXTerminal with the --title flag like so: $ lxterminal -t "My Title" Expected behaviour: an LXTerminal window opens with the title "My Title". Actual behaviour: an LXTerminal window opens with the default title (e.g. "user@machine"). - This worked as expected until about 1-2 weeks ago. + [drkokandy's note: OR perhaps, LXTerminal appears to open with its + assigned title, but that quickly gets overwritten immediately back to + user@host] + + This worked as expected until about 1-2 weeks ago.
