If you want this client to start only for a particular user instead of for all users, then
place the file in ~/.kde/Autostart/ instead of /usr/share/autostart, and kdeinit will start
it instead of ksmserver.
Like GNOME, KDE will save the state of the session when the user logs out; however,
the user is not given the option to avoid saving the session (unless she aborts
the session, perhaps by zapping the server; see Section 2.13).

8.6 Starting Xfce
Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment based on GTK+; it is particularly well
suited to systems with limited resources and to remote access (for example, through
VNC; see Section 14.1). Xfce was originally built on top of the XForms toolkit (not
the web specification!), which was the source of its name.
Xfce is started using the startxfce4 script. Unlike gnome-session or startkde, the
startxfce4 script will attempt to start an X server??”via xinit??”if one isn??™t already running
(which it assumes is the case if the DISPLAY environment variable is unset):
$ startxfce4
startxfce4 does some sanity checks and basic setup, and then starts the session manager
xfce4-session.
