You could say that. I never ran Xfce before. This notebook never had
Fedora on it before, though I have another Lenovo x120e with Fedora 20
(and Gnome) on it.
This is the first time I have installed Xfce AND F21. It is the first
time I have had to deal with the display not turning off. Hmmm, could
there be a bios setting not set right? Will have to check this out.

Yes. I will pull it down and test it.
