Thanks for the info Ken.  While awaiting a reply here, I saved 
everything and cleared the deck. I then went into the session control 
and chose to start afresh. Logged out and in again - didn't work - but 
shutting down and re-starting seems to have cured the problem. Right, 
now to RTFM and get back to Xfce - I do like what I've seen.
