Hi ,
I am new to xfce. I want to integrate xfce desktop with kirkstone. How do I start with it?

Are there any specific link/docs to refer?

Thanks

You need to start with
https://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded/tree/meta-xfce?h=kirkstone

Hi Alex,
Thanks for responding.

I have tried below steps:
1. Adding meta-xfce and meta-gnome layers to bblayers.conf.
2. IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " packagegroup-core-x11-xserver packagegroup-core-x11-utils packagegroup-core-x11 packagegroup-xfce-extended packagegroup-xfce-base mesa" to core-image-base.bb
3. IMAGE_INSTALL:append = "  xterm xclock xprop dbus dbus-x11 pointercal twm mini-x-session liberation-fonts" to local.conf.

After boot,
1. Installed xprg package &run startx  command
2. Error: PFA

Is there anything that I am missing here?

Thanks

meta-xfce isn't regularly tested, and can regress. It's a starting
point, not a polished product.

I'd suggest you try the image from the layer itself:
https://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded/tree/meta-xfce/recipes-core/images/core-image-minimal-xfce.bb?h=kirkstone

I would also start with the master branch first, because if you need
to fix anything, it needs to be done there first, and backported
later. You also get recent versions of everything, in case you need to
send things to upstreams.

Hi Alex,
As suggested I have build and tested image with meta-xfce .
please find error log:

You need to tell a bit more about your setup. What is the target
machine, and what layers are included into the build? I'd suggest you
start with plain poky (plus meta-xfce) and build for qemux86_64, as
that can be easily reproduced by others.
