Hello, I installed XFCE on Ubuntu. However, it wouldn't start, so I installed KDE Plasma. Now I wanted to uninstall XFCE, but keep KDE Plasma. However, XFCE simply won't uninstall anymore! It can be reset, but it always remains!
How do I get XFCE back down?

Loading...1. Does it make sense to install optional updates to Windows 11? Is there nothing to worry about and should I just do it, or could there be some annoying surprises? 2. And what about the drivers? Do I even need to update them? If so, is it done automatically or manually? (I have a…
So, I have a big problem. I upgraded my PC, which doesn't support Windows 11, to Windows 11 anyway (I know that was a stupid idea), and now I'm having trouble with it freezing. I considered resetting the PC and reinstalling Windows 10, but it doesn't work because I can't open the settings app, which…
I've tried many suggested solutions from the internet, but to no avail. The Pio command isn't executed. For example, I tried "sudo apt-get install python-pip" and it installed something, but still no command was executed. Even when I check the pip version, nothing happens. I'm working on a Chromebook with the secret shell Chrome extension…
Yesterday I repartitioned my hard drive a bit using Partition Wizard, after which I no longer had proper access to my two E and D partitions. I then ran some diagnostic software but nothing worked. Then I backed up all my important data and simply installed a fresh version of Windows. Two new problems. The…
I don't know exactly why, but I'm simply unable to change my password. I wanted to do it easily via recovery mode. But my laptop won't let me in. A terminal appears after I press F10, and the system simply reboots. I can't install any programs without a password. I seriously suspect I've been hacked,…
I bought a new PC, but when I play games it freezes every 2 minutes for a second…it's not the WiFi, it's stable and I can get through at about 900mbits…I've had it for 3 days and it's impossible to play…please help
Xfce4 is a metapackage, meaning it doesn't have any content of its own, but it does point to dependencies. If all of these dependencies are installed, then Xfce4 is installed.
At least apt cannot do this backwards because apt does not remember what it has installed as a dependency. For this, apt has the command
This removes dependencies that are no longer needed. This might help you – as long as you haven't manually installed the Xfce packages individually. Then they'll be marked as manually installed and won't be automatically removed.
But it's interesting that Xfce wouldn't start, but Plasma did. I only know it the other way around…
I managed to remove XFCE as the graphical user interface. Now I'm just having the problem that whenever I start Ubuntu and log in, XFCE always starts automatically. Now the screen just stays black, and I can see the mouse cursor. How can I remove the rest?
Then xfwm4 or something similar is still present. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to boot into it.
But you can simply select Plasma on the login screen, and it should remember that. Although I trust Ubuntu to do anything…
I had this a year ago after a kernel update under openSuSE Leap 15.5
With this kernel I was able to start a KDE session, the one with xfce only showed a green screen
the defective one was: vmlinuz-5.14.21-150500.55.7-default
currently it is: 5.14.21-150500.55.68-default
that works.
Spannend. Man lernt nie aus.
Luckily I was still running 15.4.
How can you assume there is a kernel bug when the system runs fine before starting a window manager on a console?
At some point, before installing Leap 15.5, I unplugged the Ethernet cable. It worked!
At some point, I decided to file a bug report at bugzilla_noreply@suse.comSuSE. [Bug 1213438]
4 days later there was a kernel patch for me (only for me?) from Japan
14 days later an official package
I understood from the information shared by many reviewers that this only affected my AMD A10-9700 RADEON R7 CPU.
🤷♂️ It doesn't bother anyone. It's just a theme. You can download the themes via the packages
remove.
They weren't there before. They can't be removed!
Das sind nur Designs. Das hat mit Xfce wenig zu tun.
There are still some things available
Insert image into question
Didn't work!
