I have been using Linux Mint gnome edition but like to switch off occasionally to Xfce. I have installed Xfce through Synaptic and everything seems fine to me. I like it because I don't have to go through a whole new setup of printer drivers, font additions and so on .
I wonder if there is a perceived advantage to using XFCE CE or just the way I am doing by installing xfce on top of gnome?
Advantage to XFCE CE?

The XFCE CE has other applications than main and is more light weight than main + added XFCE desktop
Re: Advantage to XFCE CE?
I agree with Husse.
I never do upgrades (downgrades?) as I've never had much luck with them. Besides, doing clean installs, formatting disks, and dualboots are aspects of this linux thing that I'm competent at.
On the other hand, If my life depended on coming up with a nifty little script to fix a problem... Well, just do me in quick. A codemonkey I'm not . In all honesty, I envy those who have got a handle on it. To me it's as clear as mud.
