XFCE doesn't present a login window. You can run this window
manager after logging in oon a console command line.

The graphical login window is presented by whichever display 
manager you are using -- usually gdm, kdm or xdm. Selecting a 
different display manager will give you a different presentation,
and if you don't like any of these then you can write your own 
or look for what else might have already been written.

The display manager is normally activated by prefdm referenced in
/etc/inittab. It will also honour a DISPLAYMANAGER variable set
in /etc/initscript.
