This looks exactly like what I've been wanting for my own setup. My 
trouble is that I've never been able to successfully compile and install 
anything (xfce-related or otherwise) from source on my Mandrake 9.2 
machine.

I almost hate to have to ask-- but can anyone tell me _where_ I ought to 
unpack this tarball before trying to compile and install it?

Thanks in advance...
