XFce Desktop 4 Released

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the minimalist-approaches dept.

BladeMelbourne writes "After thorough RC testing, version 4.0 of my favourite 'lite' desktop environment has been released. Sporting purty eye candy, XFce is leaps and bounds ahead of the legacy XFce 3.8.18 release, whilst retaining it's performance. Release notes are available, as well as binary and source packages. Bring that PII back to life!" While it may not have all the bells and whistles, it's pretty clean looking.

    There's no way a tinfoil hat will protect you from men falling out of the sky. That's just crazy talk.

    I know there's a process to this...with submissions and whatnot, but oh well.

    Here's the new Matrix trailer.

    searching for and downloading all the latest versions and rependencies of all my favourite software - 168 hours
    burning it on to a cdrom - 1 hour
    time between burning the CD and seeing Samba 3 and XFCE 4 come out - 24 hours

    time spent blueing the air with cursewords - endless

    if you want a system patch that breaks the system every 6 months use Micro$0ft, for everything else there's Linux
