As far as I can tell, the "XClient script" it refers to is: /usr/share/gdm/BuiltInSessions/default.desktop
which calls (by special "exec" keyword): /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc which sources: /etc/X11/Xsession Xsession then sources: ~/.xsession from: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40x11-common_xsessionrc So putting all that together, linking the xfce4 xinitrc script to ~/.xsession should make everything work properly as if you had explicitly chosen the "Xfce session" with startxfce4. ln -s /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc /home/sage/.xsession Ps. This is also a problem for applications like Banshee and last-exit which rely on the environment variable DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS to connect to DBus; that variable only gets exported from the xfce4 xinitrc script, so without the link to ~/.xsession they cannot connect to the session bus. -- xfce4-panel lock screen button not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200665 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
