I did the following, on xubuntu 12.04. Maybe it'll help your setup: Created "Xsession" session which will source .xinitrc In /usr/share/xsessions/custom.desktop: [Desktop Entry] Name=Xsession Exec=/etc/X11/Xsession Then my .xsession is: #!/usr/bin/zsh # various other settings omitted (not relevant) echo ".xsession parsed" sawfish & xfce4-panel & exec ck-launch-session startxfce4 Finally, I had to select the new session on the login screen (it's called Xsession), then fiddle around a little bit with xfce's session manager to make sure it didn't try to load another window manager as part of a saved session. For the record, my saved session is: 30 sawfish 35 xfdesktop 50 Power Manager 50 xfce4-settings-helper Once I got that, I turned off automatic saving of sessions. Apart from a bit of panel flashing at startup, everything seems to be working well. Let me know if I can help further. Sincerely, Rafal Kolanski. -- Sawfish ML
