    A terminal appears after any lightdm session

    Hi,
    The Xubuntu 20.04 Release displays a terminal for two or three seconds after the lightdm session.
    Then the desktop appears normaly.
    Which file drives the process?
    Can I rewrite it?
    Thanks very much for your help,
    D.B.

    N.B.:
    $ uname -a
    Linux SATELLITE-C70D-B 5.4.0-48-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 10 10:58:49 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    ~$ dpkg --status lightdm
    Package: lightdm
    Status: install ok installed

    Hardware:
    Toshiba SATELLITE-C70D-B

    Re: A terminal appears after any lightdm session

    This excerpt touches upon the xfce4 theme with regard to xubuntu running process.
    The "pstree command" says:
    ├─2*[kerneloops]

    ├─networkd-dispat

    The bug may be at that level:
    ─lightdm─┬─xfce4-session─┬─Thunar───2*[{Thunar}]

    Thank you for your attention.
    Any suggestion is welcome.

    In Settings > Session and Startup, do you have a "Saved Sessions" tab?
    What do you have enabled under Application Autostart?
