The title explains the basics. Attempting to use sudo startxfce4 -X xorg throws this, of course (http://i.imgur.com/i2sX9uA.png):

chronos@localhost ~/Downloads $ sudo startxfce4 -X xorg
/mnt/stateful_partition/crouton/chroots/doublex does not contain XMETHOD 'xorg'

This chroot was just made with a very recent xenial bootstrap.

@Wizardcrying,

That's because you specified the xiwi target/xmethod exclusively in the installation command. You could have installed both xmethods and made the first one specified the default with something like:

sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -r xenial -n doublex -t xorg,xiwi,cli-extra,xfce-desktop

You can add the xorg target/xmethod by updating your chroot and make it the default using:

sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -n doublex -t xorg -u

Hope this helps, -DennisL
