Running Xfce

------------

If use you a login manager like GDM, you may have two ways to start Xfce :

- “Xfce Session” will run a complete xfce session, using Xfce-provided

scripts (/usr/bin/startxfce4 which will then run /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc

or $HOME/.config/xfce4/xinitrc).

- “Default session” will run whatever is the default session manager on

your system. This is the /usr/bin/x-session-manager alternatives, meaning

you can tune it with update-alternatives (8). If you only have Xfce

installed on your system, it will default to xfce4-session, meaning

you'll be able to have an Xfce running chosing that option, but it'll be a

minimal one because all the preparation made in /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc

before running xfce4-session won't be done.

Managing shutdown
