 | | Xfwm4 is the Xfce window manager, Xfdesktop provides the menus created when clicking on the root window, and the Xfce panel provides the row of application launchers, menus, and other plugins available at the bottom of the screen. |
 | | The window manager in Xfce 4 is decended from the very light and simple Oroborus window manager, which, due to it’s small system resources and simple code base, has been the parent and grandparent of several window managers over the years. |
 | | I had trouble setting up xfce properly with the Autostart file, and that file gets mysteriously altered now and then, but generally xfce is very well behaved and it has not crashed yet (IceWM crashed maybe two times in three years of use, not bad). |
