Hi blfs-community,
having successfully created a 7.10-system (systemd), I encountered some problems conerning the graphical desktop: I use xfce4 which was built without problems and as a login-manager I built lxdm - also without any problem. Both software packages run very fine for themselves, but the connection between them produces trouble. When I start xfce4 via startxfce4, everything is fine, I get a german environment (as requested in /etc/profile with LANG- and LANGUAGE-variable), the desktop-symbols oft he devices like Trash also work fine (gvfs installed). When I try to login via lxdm, all applications are run with english localization - with the exception of applications started from within an opened xfce4-terminal, where the localization is german again. The Trash can't be opened as it seems to be not existing. Some more information: lxdm is started via systemd-service (the service-file copied and enabled from the package by hand), pam-config was changed in all directions, even using pam_env package to read the default language-config-file /etc/locale.conf once again. Even a change to the sddm-manager produced the same behaviour. This brings me to the conclusion that there must be some problem in the start procedure of xfce4 when started via dm. User-clash? Environment-clash? Does anybody make the same experience or have some advice how to solve the problem? Internet forums have been checked extensively, but no more information was found so far. Thanx to all in advance. Armin
