E17: Begin Shutdown Procedure!
- --------
I am currently using Gnome/e16 on the stable release, and I would like to have XFCE/e17
on Wheezy. I tried the same in fallback mode with Gnome3 and saw pretty much the same
output. For systems which do not provide proper hardware-accelleration, where Gnome runs
in fallback mode, it would make sense to use e17 instead of gnome-shell. Also there is no
workable port of gnome-shell for powerpc architecture, I think. So could you please make
this possible ? I tried to replace xfwm some time ago, but had e17 then running instead of
XFCE, XFCE went on upon exiting e17. The documentation is a bit poor, too. It does not
tell about available options, looking at the sources did not give me any hint either.
