 PR: 146295 - it probably doesn't get fixed until 4.6.2:

 http://old.nabble.com/upcomming-xfce-4.6.2-release-td28584690.html

In addition to this one I noticed a strange (and unreported if I am
not mistaken) issue with Thunar.
Whenever I have changed the current folder two times or so, Thunar
stops responding to mouse clicks on the right pane. So no double-click
on files are possible, neither is drag and drop. Has anyone seen this
as well or is it just me?

 portinstall?  What's that?

portinstall is part of ports-mgmt/portupgrade THE ports management
tool way back in time when portmaster wasn't around :-)

 You could try adding --enable-checks=no to CONFIGURE_ARGS in
 /usr/ports/devel/dbus/Makefile and reinstalling dbus.  This
 option disables all the safety checks which are being triggered.

 Might help.

Thanks, I tried that. Unfortunately it didn't help.

I wonder if the upcomming xfce 4.6.2 release is going to fix this.

I was thinking of trying XFCE on FreeBSD-8-Stable, but this problem has
me concerned.

Has anyone actually bugged this as yet, though? I imagine its not very
likely to get addressed (at least officially) unless there's a PR to
work against.,

Best wishes..,

ports/146295, assigned to oli...@.  It's about two weeks old.

One thing no-one has tried to do AFAICT is to run xfce4-session under truss
and find out exactly what is causing it to fail.

If you can live without the features of xfce4-session, deinstalling it 
should allow xfce to run.


There's another approach that may work for you here:

I'm afraid after logging in/out several more times, the sleep before starting
xfce4-session only seems to help about 50% of the time :-(. I finally ended up
moving xfce4-session out of the way.
