"Unclean" X (xfce4) & how about wayland?
by business_kid from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53V8C)
I have a new install of ~Current on a RazPi 4, and ran X as a new user. A very poor default config, firefox won't start, but it has wifi:) It reminded me of those with leprosy in Bible times that had to go round shouting "Unclean" when anyone approached.
I did my usual trick of piping screen output to a file, and copying the Xorg.0.log. Here's some of the juicy bits you may have ideas on. Here's screen output: Code:(xfce4-session:1414): xfce4-session-WARNING **: 13:18:29.383: gpg-agent returned no PID in the variables.
> Internal error: Could not resolve keysym XF86FullScreen
(xfwm4:1422): xfwm4-WARNING **: 13:18:29.531: Error opening /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory
/usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1: error while loading shared libraries: libwayland-client.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
** (process:1485): WARNING **: 13:18:30.947: Failed to load shared library 'libgdk-3.so.0' referenced by the typelib: libwayland-client.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directorySome of these I know. I don't need gpg; Bluetooth & hplip always seem to fall over in a mess of python hysteria until they get personal attention. XF86FullScreen is in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/inet and '//' at the beginning of the line fixes that (comments it out).
Do I need wayland (as well as some of gnome) to run that sucky xfce WM? Is wayland better on the RazPi 4? What about /dev/dri/card0? Where's that gone?
From Xorg.0.log: Code:[ 1441.188] (==) No screen section available. Using defaults.
Using the first device section listed.

[ 1441.206] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for fbturbo Is that right for X? Is there a sample /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/video.conf online anywhere or should I cobble up one of my own?
That's about it, except for the usual "Lanigan's Ball" act by libinput
I stepped out, I stepped in again
I stepped out again, I stepped in again It loads and unloads half a dozen times:scratch:
