Sounds like (as several other folks have mentioned) xfwm4 died. If you can get to a terminal, do: xfwm4 --replace & If you cannot, you can try clearing your session out and logging in again: rm ~/.cache/sessions/xfce4-sessions* Note that this will clear out things like what applications you had running, etc. Hope that helps. kevin
