I am trying all Window Managers on Debian "Trixie"

1. Matchbox does not

2. Openbox does

3. Gnome Openbox does not

4. Blackbox
Supports 
Awesome 
Fluxbox
IceWM
IceMW Experimental
IceWM Lifht

5. Fluxbox
OK

6. IceWM
OK

7. Enlightenment 
Needs some boot time configuration but has improved a lot.
It was known for fancy Window Animations 
One has to PAY for Elive.
Not a bad idea.

8. Awesome is OK.

9. i3
 Please do not use it.
Wants to write a script to configure it.
It is probably meant for laptops.
No for PC and NUC.
No log out.
Ctr+Alt plus Enter
Need to restart the computer.

10. Sway yes but no actions or log out

11. Kodi yes

12. JWM or Joe's WM is OK but no applications.

13. X11 is in reality XFCE Desktop

14. I think one rogue Window Manager most likely i3 
It messed up my Operating System with a script.
Please do not use it.
 
 I am going to Reinstall Linux Mint Debian Version for completeness of my investigations. It is a cinnamon desktop with proprietary software.
Debian Cinnamon (Live Image0 is no better, one cannot install new software.

It thought it was some failure of built-in Graphic of NUC.
It is really due to software failure or lack of firmware.
What annoys me is lack of logout options and me have reboot my NUC.
