I also discovered that the config utility doesnt place the xorg.conf in
the /etc/X11 file . Several people told me that it should. Moved to
there manually and was able to fix a mouse error manually then.
I think that twm or some other window manager is loading because of some
error.
Yes. X11 is already setup. Play with your .xsession file instead to
avoid mucking up your working X11 subsystem.
I still think you should upgrade to xfce4. Development on xfce3
stopped years ago.

Hi Vince,,,
I did like you suggested.
I got the xfce4 to install on the FreeBSD5.3, you may be right that
xfce3 is not up to date enough to fit the xorg system. However I find
the xfce3 cleaner and easy to work with and set up on different (some
old) boxes. I find it is a challange to get the 6 programs I install on
every box to come up through the pop-up windows. I have had to run:
locate on all but one to find the correct path. Under xfce3 with xf86
they all went into the same X11 directory where I could link to them now
the paths are not the same, by default the xfce4 goes to another
directory, but I have found them all finally.
Aloha!
