Re: Unable to load XFCE as a user
Hi. 
First of all, adding MORE software (SLiM) to a problem is just going to create more confusion, so please stop using it for now. If you can get "startx" to work properly, then you can get SLiM to work without a problem. 
Next, if you can login as root but not as a regular user then it might be an issue with permissions, kind of like this. Do any of those posts help?
What are the permissions on the files in your home directory? ("ls -la ~")
What are the permissions on your home directory? ("ls -ld ~")
Do you have an "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file? (You probably shouldn't.)
Feel free to post any of the output here on the forums.

Re: Unable to load XFCE as a user
Have you tried to run just "xinit" after removing ~/.xinitrc file? What is the effect?
Should be window with white background, but without the window frame.

Re: Unable to load XFCE as a user
wtx, that would not be the expected result of xinit with the xinitrc in the first post.

Oops, you are right. I forgot to write in previous post to temporarily remove ~/.xinitrc and then run "xinit".
