Hello,

I could be wrong here, but looking in session-child.c, one can find
(line 470):

    if (login1_is_running ())
    {
        login1_session = login1_get_session_id ();
        write_string (login1_session);
    }

    if (!login1_session)
    {
        /* Open a Console Kit session */

My programming knowledge is limited but I understand this as consolekit
being launched only if no logind session is launched.

And if libpam-systemd is installed, only the logind session is launched.

I am not sure that xfce4-session has logind support (I saw a patch
waiting in the pkg-xfce svn that could allow logind support at runtime).

Again that is just a mere supposition, because I cannot easily read a
source code.

Regards

Pascal Dormeau
