3- Can I put icons on my desktop? How?

Yes you can. You must use rox-filer which is not included in the standard Xubuntu setup. You can also use dfm, Idesk xfdesk and the other programs avaliable to do so. Please trust me and use rox-filer or dfm.

To install
firstly add universe repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list (see www.ubuntuguide.org to do this).

Then sudo aptitude install rox-filer

now to run rox as the icon Generator

rox --pinboard=MyPinboard

This command will give you Desktop icons that are reasonably easy to manipulate.

Cheers

Hello,
I installed Breezy-server + xubuntu-desktop and have some doubts:
1- Why Postfix is included in xubuntu-desktop?
2- Why some GNOME libs are included in xubuntu-desktop? Witch programs
use these libs?
3- Can I put icons on my desktop? How?
4- I want to install xubuntu in some PCs that haven't Internet access.
Exist an xubuntu ISO? If don't, why can I install it?
5- My sound isn't working :-( What can I do to solve this?
6- When installation finished i received a local mail with an error, I
think that it's a bug in xubuntu:
