I downloaded and installed xfce 3.8.16 and added it to the KDE login menu (Control Center ->System Administration -> Login Manager ->Sessions -> Administrator Mode) and filled in the name xfce in the Session Types/New type window. I clicked on Add New, which added the command to the "available types" list.
On logging in again and selecting xfce from the login manager, I was presented with a dark screen and the xfc tool bar at the bottom of the screen. However, none of the applications I called up had any way to be iconized, and when I clicked on a part of the window free of applications, I got no menu of commands.
Change that entry to XFce (note the caps). KDM looks in /usr/X11R6/bin for whatever you have entered as a session name. It just happens that the XFce main panel's executable is called xfce (which is also in /usr/X11R6/bin), where XFce is SuSE's startup script for the entire XFce DE. -- Scott Jones (scott at exti dot net)
