How to make accountsservice work with xfce?
by Lockywolf from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5SV5F)
Hello, everyone.
I have xfdesktop set a new desktop background every 5 minutes, and it complains with the following message in the xsession error log (~/.local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log)"
Code:** (xfdesktop:3062): WARNING **: 21:54:08.828: Failed to set the background '/home/user/images/image111.jpg': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: No such interface org.freedesktop.DisplayManager.AccountsService"(See also this issue: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/-/issues/176)
However, accountsservice comes with the stock Slackware, under the name accountsservice-0.6.55-x86_64-4
For some reason, xfdesktop cannot contact it, however. How to make it work?
