The latest version of XFCE (which is XFCE4beta2) has at leats 11 RPM's to install for full functionality. It really isn't a "newbie" installation and in and of the fact that the "newbie" then has to manually edit .xsession and .xinitrc files, well, I wouldn't wish that on a newbie unless they REALLY REALLY wanted a quick'n'dirty lesson on the *NIX file structure and it's operation...which most don't. > I have not had a chance to dink much with xfce and I am not sure I like > the task bar thing since it it big and I am used to gnome panel with > small icons and can keep it on top. The latest version is leaps and bounds beyond XFCE3 (and all previous versions) - there is still a smacking of "CDE" about it, but GTK integration, theming, taskbar, icon box - and other cool function make it so much more betta! -- Fri Jun 27 09:05:00 EST 2003 09:05:00 up 2 days, 8:51, 3 users, load average: 0.95, 1.00, 0.95 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 & RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * Harrisberger's Fourth Law of the Lab: Experience is directly proportional to the amount of equipment ruined. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
