LXDE not starting
« on: November 14, 2020, 06:19:03 AM »
Hi,

I had ~/.cache/lxsession/LXDE/run.log fill up 100% of my HDD.
I had to delete it to free up disk space.
But now LXDE doesn't start.
I have learned that lightdm should start both LXDE and OpenBox, but only the latter ends up running at the end of the start process.
I tried dpkg-reconfigure with lightdm, lxsession, openbox and LXDE packages.
But no success.

Could anybody please tell me which forum I should post this question to ?
Thank you
hbdevelop1

Hi hbdevelop1
I don't see  lightdm  or  LXDE  listed in our repositories. Are you running Tinycore? piCore? dCore? And which version?
It sounds like you are running one of the other Linux releases out there. You mention  dpkg  which we don't use.
Maybe you are running  Debian  or  Ubuntu? You would need to ask on one of their forums for help.

Hello Rich,

Thank you very much for your email, which has awakened me.
I am, in fact, using LXLE   ;D
Sorry everybody
