Hi Robby,

The bug has been reopened because it relates to the console-kit issues and
something else related to Slackware specifically.

I don't believe we will fix this issue, but it should be opened in a new bug.

Ideally you would never need to call ck-launch-session, but currently it's what
f.e. even ArchLinux recommends when starting from a TTY. Patching Xfce to call
ck-launch-session is a quick-n-dirty hack, but it's not what the DE should be
handling, and is something Xfce will never do (Jannis's been there done that
and reverted it.)

Cheers,
Mike
