    Hi BT,

            I know its on the cdrom, I installed it, it didn't seem to work for me at all,
    it had issues pertaining to something not complying with Xorg's stuff, so what I
    had happening was there was no title bar etc etc Some of the plugins I wanted
    weren't installing correctly et al.

            The easiest way to fix that without installing the FC2 rpms is to just
    install/compile the SRPMS from XFCE.org and they work just fine out of the box.
    I don't know if I am the only jackass who is having this problem with the
    bundled XFCE but if I am I would like to know what I am doing wrong.

            Cheers,

            Aly.
