Desktop is gone?

[bekirs]

Hi all,

as clearly stated in the title, I have no access to my desktop when I minimize or close all other windows. Could you help me recovering this simple functionality?

Thanks in advance,

[Elfy]

Try Alt+F2 and running xfdesktop --reload

Possibly need to add it to autostart apps in settings - session and startup

[bekirs]

Output:

Failed to execute child process "xfdesktop" (No such file or directory).


Try Alt+F2 and running xfdesktop --reload

Run this in a terminal please


dpkg -l xfdesktop4 && echo $DESKTOP_SESSION

[Elfy]

Try


sudo apt-get install xfdesktop4

Then Alt+F2 and then xfdesktop --reload again

[bekirs]

sudo apt-get install xfdesktop4

then after pressing Alt+F2, I tried
xfdesktop --reload the output is

Try


sudo apt-get install xfdesktop4

Then Alt+F2 and then xfdesktop --reload again

Are you still on Xubuntu 12.04?

Did you try using one of the 4.10/4.12 PPAs and reverted?

What does the following return?

apt-cache policy xfdesktop4
...and

sudo apt-get update

[bekirs]

1st output:

Are you still on Xubuntu 12.04?

Did you try using one of the 4.10/4.12 PPAs and reverted?

What does the following return?

apt-cache policy xfdesktop4
...and

sudo apt-get update

[Toz]

Did you enable the 4.12 PPA then delete it?

What does this return:

ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d
...and

cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Do you want to use the default Xfce 4.8 that shipped with Precise 12.04, or do you want to use the newer Xfce 4.12 (its not really 4.12, but the PPA is calling it 4.12)?

[bekirs]

I'm not sure and I don't remeber what I've done; it has happened already some months ago... I'd like to use the newest version among the safest ones.. Here are the outputs:

[Toz]

Okay, you need the 4.10 PPA installed before you can use the 4.12 PPA (see: https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/xfce-4.12).

So lets try this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[bekirs]

Okay, you need the 4.10 PPA installed before you can use the 4.12 PPA (see: https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/xfce-4.12).

So lets try this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.10
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[Toz]

We're getting close. You still have an issue with tex-common, but this isn't related to Xfce.

First, to fix the xfdesktop issue, go to Settings Manager >> Session and Startup >> Session tab and click on the "Clear saved sessions" button (select "Proceed" when prompted). Then log out and back in again. Does this solve the initial desktop issue? If not, can you try again:

apt-cache policy xfdesktop4

As for tex-common, we can look at fixing that later.

[bekirs]

My desktop is still not there. Here is the output after typing the command:

Its not installed. Try installing it now:

sudo apt-get install xfdesktop4
...then Alt+F2 and run:

xfdesktop --reload

Does it work now?

[bekirs]

It seems good; I think it worked...

[Toz]

Glad to hear its back up and working again.

[lisati]

Glad to hear its back up and working again.
Agreed.

From the error messages, it seems to me that something's not quite right with tex. This probably needs attention at some point, otherwise other issues could arise.

[bekirs]

maybe I need to open another thread for TeXWorks issues...
