E!I've been using XFCE since 4.0 (currently it's 4.4.2), and since last December or so, I'm running it exclusively on all my desktops, at home and at work.http://www.kikinovak.net/images/centos5-xfce.pngAfter logging in, XFCE takes 49 MB of RAM (YMMV), so it's rather lightweight.You have to enable the [extra] repos to get XFCE.I have some documentation on http://www.microlinux.fr about tweaking and fine-tuning XFCE under CentOS, but it's in french.
XFCE is in the CentOS Extras repo and it is enabled by default on CentOS-4 and CentOS-5 ... so:
yum grouplist | grep -i XFCE For CentOS-5 that shows that this is the install command: yum groupinstall XFCE-4.4
