Create a startup script--like what you may have used for .xsession or .xinitrc--as /usr/bin/startxfce4 (needs to be executable) 2. Create a file /etc/X11/wmsession.d/19XFce4 (1-18 are reserved by Mandrake; start with 19 and keep going up if need be) containing: NAME=XFce4 ICON=xfce4.png EXEC=/usr/bin/startxfce4 DESC=The bleeding edge SCRIPT: exec /usr/bin/startxfce4 3. Edit /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc and add XFce4 to the list of SessionTypes. This is case-sensitive and needs to be the same as NAME above. Step 3 may or may not be necessary; I found I had to do it to get it working with KDM. I have done this with fluxbox, pekwm, xfce4, and oroborus without any problems. Todd
