Sorry, I accidentally deleted the lxde thread, (on mail where I just use POP3) so headers may be broken for some of you.
Anyway, ScientificLinux forums have a post about building lxde. It is time consuming, but if you really want it....
It's using Fedora 14 as the version and has links to necessary rpms.

As a further follow up (I haven't personally tested any of this), some others in the thread recommend using a lower version, such as F12, but at least you have the list of all the packages.

Check out RELS (another EL clone), they package LXDE, you can take their packages I guess: http://mirror.rosalab.ru/rosa-server2012/repository/x86_64/extra/release/

If anyone wants to try this, here's a /etc/yum.repos.d/rosalab.repo file you can use:

Modify the priorities as desired, then run "yum install lxde-common".
You'll have to download some packages from EPEL, and giblib from RPMForge.

I googled for epel and lxde and found this repo: http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/cassmodiah/LXDE.epel6/

That is 32 bit, the machine I want to put it on is 64 bit. It is a dual core 2Ghz processor with 3 gig ram so will see how it stands up running the apps I want under gnome as a server.
Thanks for the replies. Gary.

if you only have 3gb ram, there's no real point in running 64bit applications (or even a desktop shell), even if your OS is 64bit. you'd just need the 32bit X libraries available.
