xfdesktop not loading or overrun by Gnome

[Ondrej Mihalyi]

Just a guess:

nautilus is by default application that gets restarted by session manager when killed or stop in session manager.  You have to turn it to normal application ins session manager instead of restart.  Maybe that's what happens, you stop nautilus and it's gets restarted.

No other idea
