I found a post in the forum: 
http://forum.xfce.org/index.php?topic=2890.msg12189#msg12189

The wording is different from that proposed in the Help documentation, 
so I will see whether that works.

I am using PCLinuxOS, which does not normally use sudo (another thing I 
like about the distro).  Does that make a difference?  Kde somehow sets 
this up without any hacking being required.
