xfce4

I'm using the packages lightdm with lightdm-gtk-greeter as desktop manager and xfce as window manager. When I click "Switch Users" in the user menu on the top right corner, my session becomes locked as expected. However, when I try to unlock my session from that screen, the monitor will just...

Simple issue, like in the title, except I have no idea where it's coming from. Xfce4-power-manager-settings doesn't have any "on disconnect" option. Also when I plug AC back in, the screen goes to around 80% brightness, after that I need to run: Setting the brightness straight up to 100 just...

I am using 13.0-RELEASE-p7 / XFCE. I am looking for an easy way to lock my screen for times when I am taking a break from work. My first choice is to create an icon on the desktop clicking on which will lock the screen. If that's not possible I will type a command in the terminal. When I was...

Hi guys, I have some doubts about this passage of the handbook: 1) Should this command execute as admin? 2) This command populates the file this way: $ cat .xinitrc . /usr/local/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc If I run startx from the TTY the session runs... 3) I do not understand why... There is...

I was monitoring packages being rebuilt for 12.2 on Sunday evening and saw it's done so I began the update. After I restarted my PC the first thing I noticed was my touchpad has been "reset" as tap doesn't register on my touchpad and acceleration has set back to default like the first time I've...

Fellow FreeBSD users, I'm using FreeBSD 12.1 RELEASE GENERIC. Under X when I type a command on the last line of a terminal, I often don't get any output. When I generate an event which triggers a refresh, the output finally appears, so I know it was there to start with. For example, if I...

I installed FreeBSD for the first time yesterday and installed Xorg and Xfce4 with Slim to manage logging in. I can boot into slim and login to the desktop and everything seems to work. But the settings menu doesn't have the monitor in the list of displays, and the mouse settings show "sysmouse"...

I have an x11-wm/xfce4 desktop up and running on Raspberry Pi 2 with xf86-video-scfb and I am surprised how well it runs on the RPi2. I only use packages on Arm and prior to Release 11 only the lightweight Window Managers were available. Now we have xfce4. Bravo to everyone for getting this...

Hi there, After having a long discussion about future of the GNOME desktop, I decided to give a try to x11-wm/xfce. Different components that come with Xfce (taskmanager, squeeze etc...) required different versions of clang to be installed as a dependency. Now I have clang33, clang35 and...

I'm using freeBSD 10.2-RELEASE with XFCE on VirtualBox with windows 7 machine and computer with Intel HD Graphics Card. On system I've installed emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions and my Xserver works. My problem is that Xserver looks very "fuzzy". I mean looks like connecting full HD monitor...
