Yes I will do that.

At the moment there are some things that are XFCE only, that I would
like to start; in particular xscreensaver.

I think the following is a full list of things that the .desktop files
start for XFCE but not an unknown window manager

/usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
xfce4-volumed
xss-lock xflock4
xfsettingsd
xscreensaver -no-splash

I am not sure which of these awesome should be calling -- I think
xscreensaver is clear, and only xfsettingsd looks obviously wrong. But
this is much deeper into Qubes/Fedora than I know about.


Best wishes

Mark
