Re: [orca-list] light weight accessible desktop for arch?

Hello Kendell.

Many thanks for getting back to me. I'm not asking for a step by step 
guide, but could you outline what you had to do to get XFCE working 
successfully on your arch install? there's a guide online but its from 
2010, i'm guessing things have changed since then. Even a brief list of 
commands/files you had to edit. If you could let me know that would be 
great.

Many thanks,

Mo.
