xfce4 will not start after hard boot

hi,
i was tweaking my terminal settings (doing too much at once)
and i put in something that multi-aterm did not like
my system locked up and i had to do a hard boot
(power off and on without shutting down properly)

now startxfce4 will not work, X starts but backs out
no errors in the X log and fluxbox works fine.

d i need to reinstall?
is there a cached file i can delete to get
rid of that session and start anew?

thanks in advance,
lance

Clear you session in ~/.cache/sessions and run mv ~/.config ~/.config.bak to run a fresh default setup.
