I wish I'd known this before I fumbled my way through xfce. I don't think I am getting that drop down box.
Just to be clear. After you select your username, you get prompted for your password. At the bottom left of that window, there should be a drop-down box labeled Session, that defaults to whatever DE you used the last time you logged in this way. If it says GNOME, change it to XFCE before typing your password. Then, it should default to Xfce until and unless you change it.
However booting now does not start X: the system just hangs with a black screen, blinking dash. I can then get X via going to console,Ctrl-alt-F2, which gives me a sign in prompt, signing in as byers, and running startx.
If you want to be sure you're using Xfce, try using startxfce4 instead. -- 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?
