Xfce

XFCE is a lightweight desktop environment. However, it is heavier than the 'classic' Puppy combination of JWM and RoxFiler. Functionality is slightly different. It can be installed as an additional environment, or some Puppies come with it as default.

xfce4-4.6.2-519-beta-Lucid.pet for Lucid
xfce for Lighthouse
XFCE 4.6.1 Pet for NOP
XFCE 4.6.1 Pet for PuppyRus
XFCE-4.4.1.SFS and XFCE-4.4.1.PET for Puppy3
xfce-4.2.3.2-base.pup for Puppy2
