The XFCE graphical environment does not start when the user is authorized: what could be the reason?
MX Linux 19.4 patito feo
Problem: The XFCE graphical environment does not start when a user (user, not root) is authenticated. When authorizing with root, this problem does not exist. At the same time, user authorization in text mode (text interface Ctrl + Alt + F1) is successful, and I can work with my working directory.
Before this problem appeared, I deleted several files, updated the system and possibly drivers (I don’t remember exactly, but Synaptic, the driver manager opened for sure), and also performed a memory test.
My actions: cleared cash and restored deleted files in root mode, reinstalled lightdm: I hoped to get off with a slight fright. But, alas! the problem is not solved.
I also made sure that I have no possible causes of this problem:

Running the lightdm script (sudo lightdm as user) ends with a warning:
Faled to use bus name org.freedesktop.DisplayManager, do you have appropriate permissions?

Well, first of all, lightdm has to start as root, as a service, so no wonder do you have appropriate permissions?
You can try removing /etc/xorg.conf (or /etc/X11/xorg.conf) if it exists. If not, on the contrary, run X -configure
to create a default config.
And carefully look at the errors above the no screen found line - this is just a consequence, the reason should be higher
Read logs: /var/log/Xorg.0.log , ~/.xsession-errors , ~/.xfce4-session.verbose-log
