For a Lightweight Linux Desktop, Try the New Xfce 4.10

Just noticed that Ristretto image viewer doesn't do svg. It needs to be forcibly killed. Have associated those, mainly icon files, with gthumb.

So far no fix for the .goutputstream files that get created on shutdown. I am still using a workaround:-

Workaround till fixed:- place in startup programs sh -c "rm ~/.goutputstream-*"

Another irritant. If I choose to arrange items for example by modification date for a particular directory, all other directories will adopt that setting i.e. sort one directory and all others will follow suit.

Since Ubuntu upgraded to 12.10 is the xfce 4.8 environment going to update on Ubuntu 12.04 or do I have to install xfce 4.10 manually.

Xubuntu 12.10 comes with XFCE 4.10.

Upgraded to 4.10 and now all my panel items have moved to the far left of the panel, I'll do some googling to see if I can find a solution.

Right-click the panel to edit its properties, then navigate to the "items" tab in the properties window.
If you add a "separator" item to the panel, then edit _its_ properties (tick the checkmark for "expand")
the separator will serve to "force right" any panel items trailing it.
Play with moving its relative position (via up/down arrows in the panel properties "items" tab)
~~ best (IMO, seemingly most sensible) placement of the expanded separator is immediately following the "application windows" panel item

Possibly stupid question (noob here!) but is it possible to install XFCE on CentOS?
