I've just installed centos 6.4 from a live spin I had but can't get it to install yumex or xfce for that matter.
What is the secret? Or can it not be done ...

The secret is giving the list more detail, not just saying "can't get it to install xyz"... :)
e.g. what is the output you get from # yum install yumex
I don't recall what repo it's in offhand, but I know yumex runs just fine on 6.5, as long as PackageKit doesn't have the yum backend already occupied after you enter the root password in the dialog that prompts for it (I think it then retries 3 times before it exits if it can't get sole control of the yum backend).
