It happened if I performed a reboot from inside of an xterm without shutting xfce down properly (so I didn't use the xfce logout/shutdown/reboot functionality). The next time I reboot xfwm4 did not start automatically. Going into the desktop settings, I had to re-check the Allow Xfce to manage the desktop. Are you absolutely sure you mean xfwm4 here and not say xfdesktop4 which manages the desktop and runs the menu? i.e. were you just missing window decorations? I think your case might be unrelated to the original problem. Simon. In my case it was only the window manager, menu, background, bottom tool-bar were ok -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks, Thanks. Fixed by removing ~/.cache/sessions. xfwm4 starts at every 'startxfce4' ( I don't have to remove /.cache/sessions every time) Ok, what I assume is that the first time xfwm4 crashed at startup or something like that. Then the session was saved at logout, without xfwm4 running, so it wasn't started anymore. Now everything should be ok. Can we close this bug?
