Title: xfwm4.tcz Description: xfce window manager Version: 4.13.0 Author: see doc for authors Original-site: xfce.org Copying-policy: GPL v2 Size: 296K Extension_by: aus9 at gmx dot com Tags: xfce Comments: xfce window manager. Before doing any download or reboot into xfce please edit /opt/shutdown.sh and add the following line to bottom of script. changing tc to whatever your login name is. rm -rf /home/tc/.xsession This allows you to reboot into another WM/DE because if you do not like xfce we do not want your .xsession file to have the xfce stuff in it. When you boot up bootloader choosing xfce.lst, .xsession file changes to a compatible xfce one Remember to exit using exittc please If you wish to try out XFCE, please follow these steps In APPS choose download rather than onboot. ########################### In Apps download xfwm4 and xfwm4-list ( APPS will also download lots of dependencies as XFCE is not a light window manager) The main reason for the below steps is if you do not like XFCE, you have not corrupted your current boot list, likely to be onboot.lst. So if you find any gremlins simply use the exit menu or if that is not working, press your hardware reboot button and reboot into your preferred window manager. Leaping ahead, my list is small. On boot up to XFCE, you can use Apps -> Maintenance -> Onboard Maintenance to add in your fav apps. (APPS is smart to alter only the current boot-list file!!!) 2. After download of those 2 TCZs, in a terminal $ tce-load -i xfwm4-list This will create xfce.lst into your tcedir. Note it is xfce.lst for list not xfce.1st Please check its there before reboot! The xfwm4-list TCZ is designed to be run once, while the main or doc etc can be run multiple times. 3. Reboot into your bootloader If you have xbase.lst entry, manually change that entry from xbase.lst to xfce.lst and use your bootloader to boot (For grub2 users press F10) If you have no list showing in bootloader menu, edit your bootloader menu manually, find the line that included tce=sd(etc) add this extra bit lst=xfce.lst and then boot with that amended entry. If your bootloader menu is missing tce=(etc) add lst=xfce.lst to whatever is your kernel line for grub/2 OR for APPEND line for syslinux.cfg If in doubt seek help in the forum. 4. If after testing, you like XFCE seek help on how to add a new entry. I use another distro grub2 to boot into TC 5. Newbies should not delete any entry for xfce.lst without forum or email help. However, if you have intel graphics do not delete graphics-KERNEL.tcz My build no longer uses /etc/sysconfig/desktop If you wish to check you are on XFCE the correct command to run is $ echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP (expected result=XFCE) PLEASE READ THE INFO for ######################## xfce4-xkb-plugin....Thunar xfce4-panel.........xfce4-session xfce4-settings......xfdesktop and any other info files mentioned in them Optional Dependency ################### xfwm4-extra-themes.tcz Good Luck!
