    xfce4-session doesn't load xfce4-session.rc in .config

    To get Xfce to start up Compiz when I run it, I copied the xfce4-session.rc from /etc/xdg/xfce4-session/xfce4-session.rc to ~/.config/xfce4-session/xfce4-session.rc, modified the command count and changed the commands to look like:

    Code:
    [General]
    SessionName=Default
    SaveOnExit=False
    DisableTcp=True
    
    [Failsafe Session]
    Count=5
    Client0_Command=compiz
    Client0_PerScreen=False
    Client1_Command=python /home/me/bin/logit
    Client1_PerScreen=False
    Client2_Command=xfce4-panel
    Client2_PerScreen=False
    Client3_Command=Thunar,--daemon
    Client3_PerScreen=False
    Client4_Command=xfdesktop
    Client4_PerScreen=False
    The "/home/me/bin/logit" is a script I wrote to log if the session is getting read or not. It's not. Does anyone know why xfce4-session isn't reading my session, and how to get it to do so? (The original session file is still in /etc/xdg/xfce4-session, by the way. I didn't want to change the system default.)
