Re: help on xfce4
I see that error message whenever I start xfce without a network connection, so I'm thinking you're dhcp is not happening automatically. Have you put your network settings in /etc/rc.conf?

Re: help on xfce4
I vaguely remember reading that it was a bad idea to have your actual local host name in the hosts file for the loopback...am I just on crack, or is there a reason for that?
