Hi, I was running out of space yesterday so I removed what I thought were some unnecessary packages. Not thinking clearly, I removed xfwm4, thinking that my window manager is xfce4, and that I didn't need xfwm4.
When I rebooted, my familiar xfce4 X server started, and my task bar with my various applets seemed ok. But when I invoked an xterm I didn't get the top bar that let's me maximize/minimize and most importantly move around the window. It was then that I noticed that my virtual desktop switcher was missing, so I knew I had broken something. A quick google taught me that xfwm4 is the window manager for xfce4, so I was wrong to remove it. No problem, a quick pacman -S got that. However, the window manager doesn't seem to be active, even after shutting down and restart my X server. Having removed it, is there something I need to do to activate it?
