I am just doing yum install xfce*
Not booted it yet !
John
But that is different from having xfce as an option: currently, it appears that one would
have to install all the non-essential packages with Gnome and KDE in order to have XFCE.
There is a torrent option available on the Custom spins at

is there a non-torrent option possible?
