Dear Maintainer,

While testing the latest Debian Live builds for alpha 1 pre-testing[1],
it was discovered that the LXDE session does not start properly. It displays
a non-debian wallpaper, and no LXDE panel. The desktop seems managed though
and the desktop menu displays when right-clicking on the desktop.

Thanks,

Dear Jonathan,

could you clarify your issue a bit more, please?

For me it seemed as if display manager started a wrong session. It would
be pretty helpful to see list of running processes when the issue happens.
The best you can do is to use 'ps -fx' command and then quote its output.

Thank you in advance.

Dear maintainer!

After full-upgrade from buster to bullseye _lxpanel_ is sometimes not present.
Restart of lightdm helps, sometimes multiple restarts are needed.

Output of ps -efx for OK and NOK case is available ...

Severity from my point of view is _important_ - non-root-users cannot handle this situation.

Thanks in advance for help!
