Hello , everyone . I have install the xfce-meta followed the xfce handbook . But when i restart the computer . And the login manager(slim) appeared. I just enter my account and passwd . After that . the computer have become black with a mouse icon like x . *And i should use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to went to the tty , then when i run the command: startxfce4 , it tell me the X was already running . I should kill the X first or change the display number to start the xfce . I'm wonder how did this happen ? Did it because of the connection between Xorg and xfce ? *
* * Can anyone help me? i'm new to gentoo and I have no idea how to deal with it ? Can i find any log to find something?

It sounds as though you are starting only X and not xfce.
This is my logon_cmd from /etc/slim.conf
login_cmd exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax
--exit-with-session /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc %session >
~/.xsession-errors 2>&1
And this is my ~/.xinitrc
exec startxfce4
Everything is running great. If I am not mistaken that is all it will
take to get it running.

Try to run XFCE without having slim running. So lets stop xdm from starting by running*/etc/init.d/xdm stop then you can try to run xfce by issuing the command startxfce4 or run startx.
