Bug Description
/usr/share/
Select desktop environment
[icon] Fvwm
[icon] Openbox
[icon] Ubuntu
[icon] Xfce Session
I think it is more concise and consistent with other session names to just show "Xfce" there, though perhaps its a matter of taste and perhaps other display managers present the choice differently. I ran
grep ^Name=.*ession /usr/share/
on one system and Xfce's was the only session file to use the "Session" term. (On one system I had a mixture of gnome.desktop, gnome-shell.
