Nor is hijacking a thread a good idea.  To post a new message to the
mailing list, simply send a mail to xfce at xfce.org.

Indeed, login in X with root is not adviced unless "ich bin /root, ich
darf das!".  In english works, root your machine only if you know what
you are doing.

Install a graphical display manager like gdk, or a more simple one like
slim or xdm.
