Hi, Session control permissions issue, XFCE under ASCII, resolved. I used the command:
apt-get install libpolkit-backend-elogind-1-0 The resulting installation removed slim. So, I installed xdm, an extremely antiquated display manager, but it works as expected on my machine. If I show that to those whose software needs are dictated by the latest software trends, they will laugh at me till they choke! Nevertheless, thanks to everyone. At my age, it is impossible to be impressed by 'shiny new stuff'. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
