XFCE not working in different DISPLAYs

[Eric]

Houghi,
  If it happens during login, this sounds like you're hitting this bug:
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7769 It should be resolved in the
future, but as a workaround when that happens you can stop and restart
xfdesktop with xfdesktop --quit; sleep 2; xfdesktop &

Cheers,
Eric
