Xfce 4.4: The Best Lightweight Desktop Environment - Linux.com

Xfce 4.4: The Best Lightweight Desktop Environment - Linux.com As mentioned in the op, i have almost zero log information to go from so it is not clear to me where the bug or misconfiguration lies. i'm starting here because the problem seems to be with xfce desktop environment and the default web browser application. last edited by xfce user16 (2025 08 16 01:05:40). I don't have any experience with wsl2 to offer assistance, but i can say that xfwm (and xfce for the most part current dev excepted) won't run on wayland. maybe something changed with wsl2? also, have a look at this. mark solved threads as [solved] to make it easier for others to find solutions.

Unfortunately, xfce does not remember this setting. if you set it correctly, it will be wrong again after the next reboot. i even created a monitor profile with the correct settings, but it is ignored after a reboot. this is quite annoying. How to change compositor? i'm trying to have hyprland as compositor and windows manager in xfce. i know that the wayland support for xfce is just experimental but i would try it anyway (by the way, i can'r run the wayland session for xfce, what i would set?). anyone can suggest some way to get hyprland as compositor/window manager? thanks in. Everything went well until i decided to upgrade to lmde 6. i had a bit of a bumpy install of lmde 6. there was one file (sticky.py, i can't remember) that needed to be modified for the install to complete. that was fine. but when i rebooted into lmde 6 my xfce session was "frozen". if i logged in i could do nothing as seen in the attached photo (xfce bad). i did some more research and found.

Try this: log out of xfce switch over to text console (probably ctrl alt f1 delete the contents of ~/.cache/sessions log back in again via the gui try changing the cursor theme but keep the saved session unchecked. restart and see if it holds. mark solved threads as [solved] to make it easier for others to find solutions. Xfce display settings works there. my guess is that there is a bug in xfsettingsd (or one of its components) with respect to multi seat setups. you should create a bug report so that the developer can look at it. it's also possible that it may be an issue in xorg, but i don't see anything in your log file that would indicate so. I've installed xfce4 on arch in a qemu vm managed by libvirt using the virtio gpu with 3d acceleration. i'm using sddm to start it, although i've also tried starting it using startx and adding the command to xinitrc, with the same resulting behavior. the first time i run xfce4 it starts up just fine, but the second time i run it xfce4 freezes at startup with a black screen. sddm runs fine on. I haven't figured that one out yet. but then, after unlocking the drive, xfce login does not conform to the settings that exist once logged in. which seems odd. how did the programmers miss that one? offline pages: 1 index » desktop » [solved] setting display resolution for login screen registered users online in this topic: 0, guests: 1 [bot.
