xfce4-iconbox doesn't start

[Marian Hettwer]

Hi All,


I'm not sure wether I should contact the port maintainer directly, 
however, this is my problem:

I cvsup'ed the ports tree and did a portupgrade xfce* in /var/db/pkg
The build went fine without errors. But when I start xfce, the iconbox 
on the top is missing.
So I tried starting xfce4-iconbox from an xterm window. Which is giving 
me the following error:

[mhettwer at acchilles] <~> $ xfce4-iconbox
** Message: xfce4-iconbox: Running without session manager


Any hint were to search for a solution ?

some infos about my system:
