I have an old P2-233 Dell Latitude that I wanted to install Linux on, so I ran Ubuntu Hoary last night. Obviously, neither KDE nor GNOME are going to run very well at all, so I want to install XFCE. I enabled the universe and multiverse repositories, and did an apt-get update, then apt-get install xfce, but that didn't give me an option on login for xfce. Then I found out I was supposed to run apt-get install xfce4. So I did, and it seems to run fine exept with xfce4-panel, which it gives an MD5sum error for. This time, however, I got an xfce login option, so I selected it, but it boots me right back to the login screen. I get a screen with an error log, but I can't copy and paste between login sessions. Do you think it's because I installed xfce before xfce4, the panel issue, or both. How do I install the panel having installed everything else through apt-get?
Thanks. Joey
