Cannot start XFCE4 as regular user

Unable to load a failsafe session

Unable to determine failsafe session name.  Possible causes: xfconfd isn't running (D-Bus setup problem); environment variable $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS is set incorrectly (must include "/etc"), or xfce4-session is installed incorrectly.

i have installed dbus, and Add it to the DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf to start it at every boot.
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … otplugging
and starts Xfce4 desktop environment using " exec ck-launch-session startxfce4 ".
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … 28again.29
it still have problems.

But when i install xfce4-goodie, after shutdown and reboot.

i can start XFCE4 as regular user using "startxfce4", but when i logout , login root and logout root,
login as regular user, the problems again ......

i will try it tomorrow, whether is it i can login as regular user when i reboot my computer??
