Yes, I tried hat too. My first setup was using /usr.../startxfce4 in .xinitrc. Now I tried from the command line as well, it exists everytime. Sometimes I can see the xfcehints (or 'fortunes'?) window and the mouse cursor appearing for a moment, immediately before the server shuts down. What does not behave consistently is: after a reboot, considering that xorg is set to start automatically, it is restarted for several times in a row, then at one moment it doesn't start by itself anymore, but puts me into the command-line tty. I assume this is connected to the number of limited retries set for respawning. The rest is consistent, every time I start and X session, it logs-off by itself immediately, with startxfce4 or not. ----- Original Message ----- From: Warren Block Sent: 05/02/10 06:09 PM To: Mihai Militaru Subject: Re: xfce4 and xorg-7.5 On Sun, 2 May 2010, Mihai Militaru wrote: > I'm having the exact (it seems) problem, thanks for posting the thread.

Can you try it without a login manager? Starting xfce from the command line with either startxfce4 or startx and an appropriate .xinitrc works about half the time here. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
