Cancel the request. It is an issue with lightdm. I replace it with lxdm and problems solved. I am stuck in the "endless loop" problem that is plaguing lightdm users. I have searched my ass off an everyone with the issue can not find a cure. So I disabled lightdm and installed lxdm. It ain't as pretty BUT IT WORKS!!!! I even have autologin configured. And it lets me switch back and forth between Xfce and MATE. My keeper on lxdm: lxdm auto login: # vi /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf [base] ## uncomment and set autologin username to enable autologin # autologin=todd autologin=todd ## default session or desktop used when no systemwide config # session=/usr/bin/startlxde session=/usr/bin/startxfce4 -T -- _______________________________________________ xfce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
