>From what I remember on the xfce mailing list.  There you would probably use 
startxfce4.  If you have a .xinitrc in ~ then startxfce4 will start and use 
that to get it's component's going.  If  you check the /etc/xfce4 directory 
you'll find an xinitrc that can be copied to ~/.xinitrc and will start 
everything.  It checks for things like session manager and starts that if it 
exists, if not it skips it.
