But I'm confused, when I checked drakeinstall xfce4 wasnt listed as a WM it seemed to imply that ftwm was the widow manager required,or at least suggested, to use xfce4. Now I could uninstall icewm and install ftwm if that is what is required. But I need to understand what I am doing first. I dont know how to change WM.
