desktop environments, whatever

use xfce4 and debian

XFCE is a desktop environment, and it comes with Xubuntu, so there's no either-or here.

The OS you want usually depends on what you're looking for in an OS. More times than not, you're either on the ease-of-use side of the fence, or the lightweight, speedy side.

Alright, so I suppose I get Xfce.

When i'm at the download page, it's just an archive...

How do I install this for Windows? :/

You can't install XFCE in windows. It's a desktop environment for Linux, and you need to install a linux distro (such as Xubuntu) to use it. As mentioned before, Debian also has an XFCE variant.

I installed Xubuntu right now.

Installing Steam gives me an error in the Software Center:

"Dependency is not satisfiable: Curl"

Help?

its needs the dependancy curl i think

open the package manager, search curl and install it from there. if you cant find it, do a bit of googling to install from command line

[Steemer]

I think that might mean that the OS does not have curl installed.

Type this into a terminal:

Code: [Select]

man curl
if nothing comes up, or it outputs an error type

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install curland enter your password.

You must be an admin to execute the second command.
