Kicked back to login screen after logging in, Debian 12
Kicked back to login screen after logging in, Debian 12
As the title states whenever I try to login and start the desktop environment I get kicked back to the login screen with no error message. Beforehand I was messing around with configuring dwm. I've tried updating through the tty and deleting dwmblocks (which is what I was messing with before all this)
Here's the output when running startxfce4:
usr/bin/startxfce4: Starting X server
(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) Server is already active for display 0
if this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again.

Please consult the X.org foundation support at http://wiki.x.org for help.

xinit: giving up

xinit: server error
It would be helpful if you specified which desktop environment and manager...
As I said in the post, dwm was the main issue. I've tried booting into xfce too with to no avail and I'm using lightdm
Have you tried running xfce4 from a tty?
startxfce4The terminal should write what the error is
