i use several KDE apps on my XFCE desktops & the 1st is slow to start,
as it has to load the KDE libs & start the Dcop server.
i tried BW's addition to ~/.xfce4/xinitrc (his file is ~/.xinitrc ),
but if i place the lines before the start of the panel,
the panel size is reduced, as are the panel fonts (rather ugly),
while if i place them after the start of the panel,
the KDE stuff doesn't start at all.
it wb nice to have XFCE start the KDE stuff -- if requested --
after it has started all the XFCE pieces,
but while the user gets his/her desktops (& thoughts) organised for the day,
so that the 1st KDE app can start with minimum delay.
does anyone have explanations or suggestions ?
