This is the only line in your configuration file that seems to have something to do with the error you are seeing. Ed's suggestion is also good, though you already know that the issue is with your configuration file, since everything is OK when you don't use it. Is it possible that some of the other properties you set are no longer valid, or have different options or effects than you have been using? Long shot, since XFCE should put an error in journalctl when you try to start the desktop if that is true. What happens if you boot to multiuser, and start XFCE manually from a virtual console (other than tty1)? Does it show any errors in the console? startxfce4 _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
