I've just experienced the same problem, to the extent that I can't even use the xfce window system at all:
* "pgrep xfwm4" finds no process. From my eyeball of the startup process, xfwm4 starts up and then fails; I've yet to find the log that shows the failure. * None of the windows can be focused on with the mouse; the windows lack proper decorations (handles, close boxes); I've got only one workspace instead of eight, and so and and so forth. * "xfwm4 --display=:0.0, from the root console (not from within the windowing system), does not seem to restart the manager. I get an error message instead, "xfwm4:27742 Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0", which I interpret to mean that I don't know what I'm doing. * reinstallation of xfwm4 does not work -- Moshe Yudkowsky * mo...@pobox.com * http://www.pobox.com/~moshe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
