Hello there,
Having tried LXDE, GNOME and KDE, I thought I should give XFCE a go. so far so good, but I do have one question. With the other desktop environments I could easly change the time-out on the first screen to 0 seconds to have my computer boot straight into the default item on the boot menue. I haven't managed to work that out for Xfce though. Can somebody give me some pointers ?
Cheers
Michael

Re: start-up screen
If you are referring to the Grub timeout you can edit /etc/default/grub and on line 9 is the
GRUB_TIMEOUT=30 (I believe the default is 5)
Change it to 0
then
update-grub

Re: start-up screen
If you prefer a gui to do it, install StartUp Manager from the repo. I have just done that in Xfce v13 and it works ok as I need it very short so the kids are less likely to press anything! You can also play with the resolution to make the grub menu various sizes.
