emerge -s xfce4-session
* xfce-base/xfce4-session [ Masked ]
but I can't find out where it's masked... ebuild also fails installing it.
ebuild /usr/portage/xfce-base/xfce4-session/xfce4-session-0.1.1.ebuild merge
>>> md5 src_uri  xfce4-session-0.1.1.tar.gz
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 1174: /var/db/pkg/xfce-base/xfce4-session-0.1.1/xfce4-session-0.1.1.ebuild: No such file or directory |

You need to tell portage you want to install an unstable package. The ACCEPT_KEYWORDS var needs to be set too ~x86.
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -p xfce4-session |

it is, try doing it, still says masked. And it's not in portage.mask either. |

emerge -v /var/portage/xfce-base/xfce4-session/xfce4-session-0.1.1.ebuild
Seems to be working.

How do you use xfce4-session?!
You cant set it as the DISPLAYMANAGER in /etc/rc.conf.
I am using kdm right now and I'd like to use xfce4-session instead but I dont know what to do  .
Help? |

I don't use kdm, but this is how I start gnome (xfce4-session is getting downloaded now... finally! Thanks to pjp)...
In ~/.xinitrc file I just added exec gnome-session. And when I use startx, it gets me into gnome. For xfce4, I guess gnome-session should just be replaced by xfce4-session.

Maybe I am confused...
xfce4-session is not a manager like kdm or gdm? |

No. AFIK it is a start up session manager to help enable programs and stuff you want to start with xfce4. It does a similar thing to the xfce4 startup script. |

I find when it is running things take much longer to load.
Xterm is usually up the instant I run it, but with xfce4-session it takes a second or two. No big deal, but strange. |
