I would like to use Xfce with Antix, and I noticed a 'meta-installer' which is nice....what packages to I need for a complete Xfce install on my Dell Precision Laptop....I need power management and the rest....

thanks!! ps: I'm a MEPIS user in the past, but I've been unsucessful over there on the forums getting x up on this Precision....many posts....however, Antix will work nicely!

EDIT: ahhhh, I'm getting used to FluxBox so why spoil the party, eh? __{{emoticon}}__ __{{emoticon}}__

I have been running xfce since the begining. I'm not sure how"complete" the meta-installer way is but you can add anything you find your missing afterward via synaptic.

Fluxbox and IceWM really don't take up much room and there nice for a back up if you ever have trouble.

thanks eriefisher.....just wanted some confirmation on this.....

btw, how do I set a default WM with Slim? It seems to keep wanting to go back to IceWM....thks !!

EDIT: I figured out the default setting after some looking around in .xinitrc
