Installing XFCE

Use Pentoo to get everything taken care of for you.

When Pentoo starts up, it will be at a command line. You can type startx to start up the XFCE desktop.

Getting Set Up

Two things I did right away were:

1. Change Caps lock to Control

These were both child's play, using Pentoo. Here's how.

Caps Lock to Control
