[xubuntu-users] Login fails on Xubuntu 24.04 VirtualBox VM

[MR ZenWiz]

I tried installing xubuntu 24.04 in a virtualbox VM, and it installed fine.

However, after installation, I cannot login. I enter my password, it
accepts this, starts to bring up the main window, and drops back to
the login screen. It never gets logged in for real.

I asked about this on the Ubuntu mailing list and the answer seems to
be related to Wayland vs. Xorg, but the answers are all regarding
gdm3, which xubuntu does not use.

Anyone else seeing this? Any idea why?

How do I force an Xorg login instead of a Wayland one on Xubuntu?

Thanks.
