ok, one thing i noticed that wasn't right was that Terminal cannot display
accented characters, nor does it accept them when composed with the
Multi_key. other apps had no trouble at all, just Terminal.

i changed the command in rc.4 to:

exec su - user_name -c "source /etc/profile && /usr/bin/startxfce4"

and now Terminal behaves normal again.
