similar to: XFCE auto login failure

Hi, We have a strange problem here and I hope someone can help. I have a Xubuntu 12.04 host holding a Xubuntu 12.04 guest.

When I watch the guest boot over VNC, it goes through the boot messages,  black screens for a second then sits

Hi, folks, So I installed xfce on my Netbook. While I was in Chicago, I worked out how to tell it to bring it up. It came up. As root. With no obvious way to tell it to show a login screen first. Did I miss something? mark

Dear All, because I have a lot of older machines and laptops (512Mb) I would like to use Xfce. So I installed CentOs 6 from the normal netinstall cd and selected minimal ( just over 200 packages). From there I enabled EPEL repo and did : #yum groupinstall Xfce after that I installed Xorg and the driver for Intel ( it's on a Dell laptop ) after startx I get a get a lot of

I tried making my own repo with just the groups in them and I got an error.... I used: #createrepo -g /root/mygroups.xml /root/myrepo Saving Primary metadata Saving file lists metadata Saving other metadata Generating sqlite DBs Sqlite DBs complete Where /root/mygroup.xml is attached below.

If I issue 'reboot' as root from an xterm within xfce4, lightdm stops fine. I couldn't find anything in the logs, but in which one of syslog-ng's logs should I look? I'm

Yesterday, in an effort to see if a logout-login would clear this up, I discovered that the main screen (console 7) logged out with the usual text trails on the screen, but the login window never

Nicolas, Thank you!? But I am Dyslexic and very mono-linguistic; at least I could read the actual commands, if not all the wonderful comments...
