I have just installed xfce4 in etch
but get no hint how to start it
I add "xfwm" to ".xinitrc"
but it doesn't work when I run xinit

Why are you still running etch? Etch is no longer supported.

You want "exec startxfce4" in your ~/.xinitrc. On Lenny (possibly also
etch) you can make this global with update-alternatives --config
x-session-manager.
