If you have already added the special SoS Xfce source, a simple 'urpmi --auto-select' should work.

If you still can't get urpmi to work properly, try the GUI - I seem to remember that you did something a bit odd right at the start of this thread, so if you go into the software uninstaller first and uninstall everything Xfce you can see, then use your file manager to get rid of anything that's left, then try the installer and use that to install all the Xfce bits that you want from the SoS source...that should work!


Thanks for the pointers, but it seems there's a problem with one of the dependencies, though I did need to uninstall first. And I did download the graphical installer to begin with, on the recommendation of someone at #xfce. Will stick with #mandriva in future :-)
cheers
