Bug ID: 16128
Summary: Add a --disable-wm-check flag like that of xfdesktop
and xfce4-panel
Classification: Xfce Core
Product: Xfce4-settings
Version: 4.14.1
Hardware: PC (x86_64)
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Medium
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]

patch to implement requested flag
Both xfdesktop and xfce4-panel have a --disable-wm-check command line option,
presumably to allow xfce4 to be used with an alternate window manager (e.g.
fluxbox) that does not use the same hints that xfwm4 uses (ownership of the
WM_S0, WM_S1, etc. selections) to register its operation. However, xfsettingsd
still waits for these hints during session startup. Please add a
--disable-wm-check option to not wait for these window manager hints, to make
it consistent with the other xfce4 components and to allow a full session
startup with an alternate window manager but without waiting for the check to
time out. I have provided a patch which does so, cf.
