Your solution doesn't work because the user keith could still do a ls

I went through pkg_rmleaves and deleted xfce and then everything it
exposed, then re-installed using portinstall -R
This installed 32 packages when I had only deleted 31, so something
got installed that wasn't previously.
Unfortunately, this still didn't fix the problems.
The XFCE menu still

There's still no XFCE menu, and without the ability to update the

Well, I finally got XORG to install again, and then installed XFCE
4.6. Still no menus, and huge screen resolution. However,
Ctl-Alt-[Keypad Minus] will zoom in on part of the desktop area,
making text at least readable on screen.
Any other suggestions on getting XFCE to have its menu again? Or
as well:
Adding xrandr to the .xinitrc file seems to have the screen resolution
and flicker fixed.
One other thing, though, the exit button (from the panel) now only has
the option to Quit, which is doesn't do. Fortunately, this is pretty
easy to work around, just shutdown from an xterm.

I haven't been folowing this discussion but have you tried to delete the

it to redo the config from scratch.

At this point, I guess I'm looking for recommendations on a window
manager.
Here are the major problems with XFCE4 4.6:

* 20-25 minutes to start X (was about 1 under XFCE4 4.4)
* 0% chance of shutting down successfully if

portdowngrade and some work can probably do it. If your problems are
really xorg related, changing window manager won't help.
Looked into portdowngrade, and I may look into that further at some
point. At this point, fluxbox seems to be pretty cool, and seems to be
working.

Try a smaller one, like evilwm. It's (pretty much) all command line. For
example, you would open up a term and launch firefox from there (# firefox).
Once you get the hang of its keybindings, which are vi-like, it's fun and
easy. It's also compatible with aterm, which will give you
to be done to get cupsd to start at startup?

Why don't you just manually remove Xorg and then install it with
