At some point, it may be worth taking a screen shot of whatever problems
you're seeing, and putting it somewhere on the web. (Don't try to attach
it to an email to this list; it'll be too big, and the list will probably
reject it.)
A shot in the dark:
Assuming this is XFCE4, [...]
I googled "linux how to determine which desktop environment is being used"
and it gave me several answers. In no particular order,
env | grep XDG
inxi
screenfetch
env | grep SESSION
ps -A | egrep -i "gnome|kde|mate|cinnamon|lxde|xfce|jwm"
wmctrl -m
And a whole lot more, many of which look specialized or obscure.
Well, what I have I can use, I just have to learn this new way to use it.
Thanks Greg.
Cheers, Gene Heskett, CET.
