A reboot will cause the .xsession file to be re-processed.  Or at least use the Logout | Exit to Prompt command to leave X windows, then restart it with the command startx.

If you upgraded, the release announcements always include files that have changed and need to be updated.

flit should start automatically, that is, if your .xsession is current.
You can use the following command to update your .xession.

$ cp /etc/skel/.xsession /home/tc/.xsession

If you will have to exit to prompt, and then type startx to see the changes, or simply reboot.
