Hopefully reactivating an old thread whose reply does not work with FC37...
I have an x86 FC37 XFCE-spin whose GUI setups had a kind of creeping
death, then went bonkers.
I'd like to force-reinstall XFCE completely (no desire to save any
X/XFCE configs- would like all that re-initialized, like a XFCE-spin
fresh-install (at least for the X-stuff only).
I tried some online suggestions, but XFCE is still not right, the
background image does not show (only black screen), the 'pager' does not
work (only 1 page is shown when there it says there should be 8
workspaces). also, desktop and progs are not remembered when i
leave/restart the session.
Attempting to reinstall from thread and online-article suggestions;
one problem is that running the suggested:
dnf groupremove 'Xfce Desktop'
Results in a dnf error about it would result in removing dnf and
sudo. using the suggested '--skip-broken' does not work.
Note: I start FC37 in text-mode (lightdm), and only run X when I need
it by running 'startx'.
