Hi,

you could try removing whatever dotfiles configure your xfce session. Eg

Code:

mv ~/.config/xfce4 ~/.config/xfce4.back

If that doesn't work, please provide details of what problems you are having.

Thank you Mr. Evo2

After instaling compiz and running everythings fine. After -pkill compiz- (because i dont know how to reverse this command: compiz ccp --replace) my windows mamager crash, which means title bar goes away and unable to move windows, including some apps that doesnt start.

The only way its to uninstall compiz and remove the user and then re-create it. But thats to much. I think must be another clue.

(The xfce4 managing windows system keeps crash after uninstalling compiz)

If you just want to revert to using the default window manager instead of compiz, try:

Code:

xfwm4 --replace

This does the trick and fix everything.

Thank you Sr.
