x11 disablee desktop integration or change it

Disable the desktop entirely (advanced)

This is a more advanced method that will disable desktop management entirely (including desktop folder creation and display).

Disable the 4th client command monitor_desktop, window_manager, panel, client_2

xfconf-query --channel "xfce4-session" --property "/sessions/Failsafe/Client4_Command" --type string --set ""

Basically it tells the session manager (the thing that starts and monitors your desktop and window manager, panel, ...) to not start any desktop manager ("Client2") anymore

Log out and back in

If you wish to re-enable desktop management later on, do the same steps as above but use the command

xfconf-query --channel "xfce4-session" --property "/sessions/Failsafe/Client4_Command" --type string --set "xfdesktop"

instead.
