After installation when I log on will it start automaticly or do I need to manually start it. Thanks -- Colyn Goodson http://home.swbell.net/colyng http://www.colyngoodson.com |

It should automatically be added to the selecteble desktop environments if you use login managers as kdm or gdm, if you use another one, you will need to edit your /etc/rc.conf, so that xfce4 will be started when you login from xdm. This of course requiers you are using a runlevel that has X windows system started, if using startx the /etc/rc.conf setting will be important. //Aho |
