Re: installed Mint7, Can i get it XFCE ?
Cause there are no CE's of the 7 release and mint 7 is only in the RC status, you've to wait until the main edition reaches the final stage and after that the CE's

You can get the mint xfce stuff as soon as they're available by installing packages (e.g. mint-meta-xfce, thunar-custom-actions-xfce, mintupload-xfce) from the repositories. However, according to http://packages.linuxmint.com/#7main there are non yet available, so I'm afraid you have to wait.
Alternatively, you could try adding the felicia repos, then installing mint-meta-xfce, but you will almost certainly have undescribeable problems with that, as there will probably be conflicts.

You can't get everything from Linux Mint 6 because it'll break your system.
XFCE 4.6 has some changes that isn't compatible with 4.2.
So the settings wouldn't work and you wouldn't be able to login.
