Thread: Can't login to Xfce session in Ubuntu 11.10


so, had installed xfce before, when messing around desktop environments, got busy again, , decided uninstall it. purged/removed many xfce-related files possible, , deleted /usr/share/xsessions/xfce.desktop rm. reinstalled xfce, can't login xfce session. help/suggestions?

try re-install (in place)
cat /usr/share/xsessions/xfce*
cat /usr/share/xsessions/xubuntu*
see if results

if not open root terminal , re-create following contents:

code:
[desktop entry] version=1.0 name=xfce session comment=use session run xfce desktop environment exec=startxfce4 icon= type=application
if fails 'completely remove' xfce , it's components & re-install re-try

or try install:
xubuntu-desktop
