you don't need to create that file.

I'm a bonehead

 

I didn't realize that there's a startup script, /usr/local/bin/startxfce4, which works nicely. The advantage to using it is that you can put things you'd like to start when you start xfce4 in ~/Desktop/Autostart. I modified the default startxfce4 script because I don't want to start the screensaver and taskbar by default (though I'm now using the taskbar instead of the iconbox). So, you can basically ignore my startup script.

 

Also, if you decide to add xfce4 to your KDM menu, be sure to change the path to this script, i.e. /usr/local/bin/startxfce4.

 

As far as I can tell, to start applications in ~/Desktop/Autostart, you can just write a simple script, such as:

#!/bin/bash
