HEADS UP: doc/ slush begins for 10.3-RELEASE
Hello, As announced, the doc tree is now in a slush. Please postpone all non-essential changes until after the doc tree is tagged (currently scheduled for 6 February, 2016). Please note that the slush does not apply to /htdocs documents.

[Bug 206535] Possible errata in section "5.7.3. Xfce"
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206535 Bug ID: 206535 Summary: Possible errata in section "5.7.3. Xfce" Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: pa...@pablobm.com I believe the handbook is wrong in section 5.7.3, where it instructs readers to use the command `exec /usr/local/bin/startxfce4` in the file `~/.xsession`. That command doesn't work for me, whereas `exec /usr/local/bin/xfce4-session` does. I believe that would be the correct command to use. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206535 Warren Block changed: What|Removed |Added CC||wbl...@freebsd.org --- Comment #1 from Warren Block --- Are you looking at the latest version of the Handbook? The latest version has instructions for both startx and XDM. The startx section says to add the command to .xinitrc. The XDM section adds it to .xsession. Both should also use the --with-ck-launch flag, I'll add that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206535 --- Comment #2 from Pablo Brasero --- Yes. Sorry, I didn't explain myself properly. I'll rephrase. Section 5.7.3, as seen at https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11-wm.html, has instructions for both startx and XDM, as you point out. What I mean is that the second of these two, the one about XDM, says to use `exec /usr/local/bin/startxfce4` in `~/.xsession`, and that didn't work for me. However, using `exec /usr/local/bin/xfce4-session` instead, in that same file, does the trick. Now, it might be it's not that the command is wrong, but that the argument is missing. That I cannot tell. As for the startx route, I haven't even tried (I'm going the XDM route), so I cannot tell. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206535 --- Comment #3 from Warren Block --- Please test "exec /usr/local/bin/startxfce4 --with-ck-launch" in .xsession with XDM. If that still does not work, there might be other issues. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
