Hi guys,
I try to install xfce4 on my RH9 linux box but I feel stupid already. i've
downloaded a package with all the tarballs and follow the Installing
instructions at www.xfce.org, where it is said that:
"Building the packages should be a simple matter of unpacking the tarballs
and, from the top source directory, type :
./configure && make && make install
in the module directories.
Build order:
1. libxfce4util
2. libxfcegui4
3. libxfce4mcs
4. xfce-mcs-manager
5. all other modules (you have to install xfce4 panel before compiling
panel plugins).
"
SO that's what I do: I unpack and compile and install libxfce4util, the
same with libxfcegui4 and so until xfce-mcs-manager.
Problem is that I can NOt find anywhere the startxfce4 command, and so I
can not launch the system.
Could somebody tell me what I am doing wrong, and what is the right
procedure to install from sources?
Thanks,
Ferran.
