It didn't work as described in the handbook, perhaps it would work now, after the ports tree upgrade, however, I start x from tty after login in as user ... $ startx ... IIRC, if you start x as root, Thunar will warn you, that you run the session as root. I'll do an experiment now, Ctrl + Alt + F1 [snip] ... Don't worry, I'm back in a user session, but I run a root session and got "Warning, you are using the root account, you may harm your system." by Thunar 1.6.2. Regards, Ralf
