You ran 'xfstt --sync', but did you run 'xfstt &'? That needs to be run
before X is started, and if you are using a graphical logon it may not be
able to start without it (and in the end confuse itself). If you are using
a graphical logon be sure to add it into you boot sequence.
That may fix your problem...
