i think xfce is an old lame DE that lacks of a LOTS of features and i ma
sure that xfce has bugs too. on my eyes has a larger number of bugs because
it lacks of the most of stuff i use in kde.

i think that saying to try another desktop instead to fix the problem is a
stupid way to see the situation.
