Xfce

Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for unix-like operating systems. It aims to be fast and lightweight, while still being visually appealing and easy to use.

Installation

To install Xfce including its dependencies (like GTK+), use:

sudo port install xfce

To make Xfce start when X11 is started, add it to your config (make sure you don't have a ~/.xinitrc file):

echo "exec startxfce4" > ~/.xinitrc.d/99-xfce.sh
chmod 755 ~/.xinitrc.d/99-xfce.sh

Users of the old X11.app from Tiger will need to do this instead:

echo "exec startxfce4" > ~/.xinitrc

This works and looks best when running X11 in full screen mode.
