XFCE won't run on Ubuntu 18.04 unless you set Ubuntu to use X instead of Wayland. And it doesn't run reliably even then.<br>

Xorg is the default, not Wayland, so you must have enabled Wayland to be using it at all (although it does come with it as shipped so you can do so at install I would assume.)</div>

Bionic Beaver, the codename for the next Ubuntu LTS release, is due in April 2018 and will ship with both the traditional Xorg graphics stack as well as the newer Wayland based stack, but Xorg will be the default.</div>

<div class="PlainText">But neither Xubuntu nor Ubuntu Studio, the two releases based on XFCE, come with Wayland. Not sure why you would be using it on an XFCE system at all.... The way things currently stand not sure I'd use it on anything but a KDE/Plasma
install.<br>

<div class="PlainText">Biggest issue I had with Ubuntu Studio 18.04 is that no matter what I tried it seems to not be possible to use multiple monitors without graphical glitches. Plus there is an annoying bug in Thunar (but XFCE have just released a patch
upstream, which I suspect will never make it to 18.04 as it's not a security patch) which can crash it if you use the tree view in side pane.<br>
