I believe I did the same thing you did.... These are the steps I took. 1. Login to a xfce session 2. mv .config to config 3. Logout 4. Login to a xfce session 5. Dialog pops up and I pick "default". 6. Logout 7. Login to a GNOME session. (don't know what "classic gnome" is) 8. Logout 9. Login to a xfce session .... and I should see a problem? I don't see any problems....

Bringing up problems with Fedora on this list are never OT. But, it is suggested that you keep to one problem per message/thread to avoid having things get mixed up or confused. -- Never be afraid to laugh at yourself, after all, you could be missing out on the joke of the century. -- Dame Edna Everage -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
