Yeah, it works.  I just didn't know if there was a special place I had
to put it in xinitrc to get it to load automatically.  The answer is
there isn't, but I was afraid I might bork the panel (since it has that
fun if block in xinitrc).  Turns out, just run the command as usual.

But now, a new question.  How do I get the "keys" in the systray?  If
you use RH's KDE or GNOME, you know if you run a su program and enter
the root password (like up2date, or one of the redhat-config packages)
you'll get a set of keys in the tray showing you have root permissions
for a bit.  However, I can't seem to get Xfce4 to show them.

Does anyone know if there is a process that needs to be running to get
this to work?  Or is it something in Redhat's versions of GNOME and KDE
that gets this to happen?
