Re: [Trisquel-users] Idea: Xfce as classic DE for Trisquel 7?

[alonivtsan]

Xfce is a good choice if one is looking for a stable and basic desktop  
environment which can also provide eye candy via compiz (but it isn't  
integrated with Xfce's settings). If one also wants optional eye candy and a  
lightweight desktop environment, perhaps enlightenment/e17 would fit  
(although it probably isn't the most "newbie" friendly as some tasks such as  
connecting an external monitor require using the terminal).
