Re: XFce and Switchdesk Tool

I don't really think that the problem was that it wasn't showing up in the login page, but setting it as default, will try Satish's idea.

	Thanks and Cheers,

I am using XFce and Fedora keeps telling me to use switchdesk to make this desktop my default, and I would like to. But when I run switchdesk I see Gnome, KDE and Tw.. but not XFce.

Try adding a file "/etc/X11/dm/Sessions/xfce.desktop" with the following content:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=XFce
Comment=XFce
Type=Application
Icon=
Exec=/usr/bin/startxfce4

Then kill X (or logout); xfce should appear in the list of available
desktops.

Hope this helps,
Paul
