I think it has to do with the standard "custom" install. xfce is also in the 2nd CD but was not installed when I selected custom (all selections) install in Mandrake 7.2. Since it had been installed in the same standard custom install in 7.1 and being a newbie (7.1 was my first venture into linux) I erroneously assumed xfce was not included in 7.2. I subsequently discovered it was included in the CD but not in the install. I am not sure why Mandrake decided the change. Also the xscreensaver that is installed in 7.2 lacks a lot of the "default and _included_" screensaver options (atlantis, moebius, pipes, etc., etc.). These options are not in the 7.2 xscreensaver rpm, but are in the 7.1 xscreensaver rpm. I extracted them from the 7.1 rpm and added them to the 7.2 xscreensaver install and they work fine.
