You can remove your config by running 'mv ~/.config ~/.config.bak', but personaly i don't think Xfce can hang the Xserver, maybe an other (not Xfce related) updated caused the problem. You can read the xorg log files (/var/lob/Xorg.0.log) to see if there are errors printed before the system hangs.

Re: (SOLVED)-Xfce crashed an does not want ot startup anymore.... :-(

Any why do you think the panel is not starting? Because nothing in the bt says the panel crashes.

More likely you glib or libgnomeui or broken.

Re: (SOLVED)-Xfce crashed an does not want ot startup anymore.... :-(

hi guys,
u need to do thsi to solve this problem
-->ALT+F2-->xfce4-panel
this pulls up the program launcher and starts the panel....
once the panel comes up, go to
Settings-->Sessions and Startup Settings-->check the "Automatically save session on logout"
and then logout and login back again....
voila..ur good to go..
