Changing from Gnome to XFCE desktop

[Olli Orkoneva]

I have at last found a distro which works without bugs in my Acer Aspire One
(8GB SSD). Fedora 10 works on it out-of-the-box.

Do you recommend to change from Gnome desktop to XFCE desktop in order to
make it a bit faster?

It looked to me as simple as first uninstall Gnome, then install XFCE, but I
read a discussion to avoid it, because XFCE has so many Gnome depencies.

So what I am doing now is installing XFCE in addition to Gnome, in order to
use it when I use my own profile, as well as i plan to use some more
lightweight browser like Dillo or Kazehakase.

Does this make sense to you?
