Then, it is high time to switch for xfce4. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
First of all, the version number is bigger. :) |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
And, the second of all :), in case of xfce4 |
| 21 |
I need only one following line in ./xinitrc |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
startxfce4 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
One even can do without ./xinitrc al all |
| 26 |
if he do not mind instead of the startx |
| 27 |
command type startxfce4. |
| 28 |
|

P.S. I have switched to xfce4 from gnome2 |
| 30 |
and nobody can find any difference. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Only I know that the image of sun in gnome2 |
| 33 |
weather applet was nicer. :) |
