I ran the command as you instructed, and have xfce4 running, but seem to be w/o a lot of things. I have no right/middle/left click menus at all.
Can I just install all of the SoS xfce4 packages to give me a complete setup to work with?
I have urpmi sources previously set up for main, contrib, updates, plf, and jpackage, and also SoS-Xfce.
TIA for your time and patience.
