Created attachment 6303 Possible fix Xfce's xinitrc launches xfce4-session as a simple command. This means that the shell process executing xinitrc will stay running and wait for xfce4-session to complete, even though it has nothing more to do. "exec xfce4-session" can be used instead to replace the shell process instead of creating a new one, thus saving memory. Side note: the xinitrc script might benefit from "set -e" in the beginning (will not ignore errors).
Ping?
Can anyone review this simple patch? I have patched my xinitrc months ago and it is working fine.
Ping again?
