Re: Update kills XFCE

use slapt-get in a terminal
sudo slapt-get -i glibc

It is not glibc. Something else went wrong.

If you cannot type in the text box then i do not know what is going on with your keyboard. https://people.salixos.org/djemos/salix-15.0/screenshots/salix64 ...

You will see the text appeared there. :)

Re: Problem with my new machine

The file permissions on .Xauthority must be 400 (read and write for user ONLY). Any other file permission will cause the xauth program to reject the file.
As a final measure you can try deleting the .Xauthority file altogether. The file will be recreated the next time you log in
