[Arm-dev] Request for the Xfce desktop

[Robert Moskowitz]

Pablo,

Thanks!  I will do test install on the gnome image.  If I goes without 
an error, I will do a build off minimal and try with that.

And interesting about Xfce and Redhat.  They provide it for all Fedora 
builds.  Or at least x64 and armv7!
