I started to type similar in answer to a different thread a couple days ago. The only drawback about this CHOICE is that sometimes the desired packages bring in a [boatload] of dependencies that are only related to the desktop environment most likely to be developing them.. and their interoperability. Appreciate these threads. I was wanting to install another instance of Debian. For some dingbat reason, it NEVER occurred to me to pick something other than XFCE4 on a partition by itself. As I type that, I do remember having problems with themes and such features not playing consistently when the same entire /home/user directory is rbind'ed to all of them. During those times, though, I had three or four desktop environments all installed on the same single partition. I'm smelling a lot of symlinking and rbind'ing necessary to make it work. There was at least one thread about that quite a while back. Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *
