XFCE window manager forgets my settings

[jpalfree]

---

I've installed xfce an my LFS build. and it works for the most part. The only problem is that the window manager settings are forgotten when i start up xfce. It remembers my sessions alright and all the other settings load correctly but, for example, it forgets that i want the workspaces to wrap when the mouse reaches the end of the screen.

anyone else have this problem and/or know how to fix it?
thanks

my guess is that where ever these config files are, user does not have read write access to them

i checked the permissions and everything looks ok.
so, i'm clueless as to why this is happening. quite annoying.
