Buster on Win 10 Problems

Show all headers | View raw

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] - view raw

First, let me assure the list that I am not trying to ignite a flame war.

 

I have a legitimate reason for installing Debian Buster on my Windows 10
laptop using Windows Subsystem Linux and X410. I have a very important
application for my Computational Chemistry research program that has never
been ported to Linux.

 

After much thrashing about and hair pulling (little enough to begin with) I
succeeded.

 

However, there are several problems, minor but annoying. I'm using the xfe4
desktop. 

 

The Application Manager Logout function will only allow Logout; Restart and
Shutdown are grayed out.

 

On the System level, clicking on the Synaptic Package Manager entry in the
pulldown manual  does not open the app; sudo synaptic in the Xfce Terminal
opens the app and it is fully functional. 

 

I hope to receive advise from this list. I shudder to think of having to
query MS, even if I got an answer it would be very murky and impossible to
implement.

 

Thanks in advance.
