Xfce
Xfce es un GTK + 2 ligero entorno de escritorio. Citando el sitio oficial, Xfce “pretende ser rápido y bajo en recursos del sistema, sin dejar de ser visualmente atractivo y fácil de usar”. Aunque viene con un poco menos de funciones que KDE o Gnome, contiene una gama completa de aplicaciones livianas para la mayoría de sus necesidades. Tiene un uso de memoria más pequeño y tambien de CPU lo convierte en un buen candidato para estaciones de trabajo de gama baja o para computadoras portátiles, mejorando la vida útil de la batería.
Installation
Xfce is part of Slackware installation media. The latest stable release, Slackware 14, comes with the latest version of Xfce, 4.10. During the installation process, please make sure that you select the Xfce package group. It gets a new package folder under “/slackware/xfce”.
Adding Xfce to an existing installation is straightforward:
darkstar~# slackpkg install xfce
Configuration
Startup
If you wish to make it your default starting environment, you can specify so at installation time. The choice can be made at the “SELECT DEFAULT WINDOW MANAGER FOR X” step.
After the system is already installed, you can switch between window managers by running the xwmconfig script as root and selecting Xfce:
darkstar~# xwmconfig
Looks
Xfce comes with a bundle of themes that changes the way Xfce looks and feels.
Changing the current theme is as easy as going to Settings → Appearance and selecting one of the preinstalled themes.
More themes, backgrounds, mouse cursors and other goodies are available at http://xfce-look.org/
