[Thinstation-general] XFWM4 issue and duplicate icones

[Brian K. <bk...@ci...>]

Hello, I'm stumped by 3 issues.  Months ago, I started with XFMW4 and
couldn't get my thinstation to work. I got it to work but I couldn't icons
on the desktop.  I went to ICEWM.  I solved it but we wanted XFWM4.  I
converted back to XFWM4.  Here's what we need:

Session 0 = XFWM4
Session 1 = VMVIEWPCOIP
Sessions 2 = Firefox (for now)
Session 3= Firefox (for now)


Issue 1:  After converting back to XFWM4,  I no longer have Shutdown or
Restart in the Shutdown window.  Just "Reload".  I've looked at polkit,
Consolekit, XFWM4, XFCE.  Don't know why the user level is blocked from 2
out of 3 options to "Turn off" the pc.

Issue 2:  Firefox has 3 Icons on my desktop.  The 2 that I want.  Sessions
2 and 3 are set to Server now.  After moving from ICEWM, each
Session_#_FFox_Homepage is pointed at the Session 2 homepage.  And, above
both is a "Firefox" icon pointed at thinstation.org (not needed).

Issue 3: VMWare connection icon is not named the "custom name" that I
want.  The working app is named "Vmware.." on my build  3 icons below it is
what appears to be some unopen-able text file with my "custom name.
Application is functional just name is on some icon that I don't want or
need.  The spare icon has been there from the start and is not functioning
with anything.

I've got icons on the desktop 2 for Vmware (1 is dead link to no where).
And, 3 for Firefox (1 that I don't want).  My session commands follow
proper procedure.  I'm wondering

Any thoughts?


Now, I've got it
