This blog post was very helpful, thank you. Clear and useful (other sites goooogle found were not clear). Oh, one correction, lower case letters matter of course, the sudo apt-get Xfce4 needs to be sudo apt-get xfce4.

I loaded xfce4 no problem, onto my old RPi 1 model B, hoping for a speed increase using Midori. Unfortunately, no such luck, it's still slow. So it's back to Dillo browser. Or I'll just use my shiny new RPi 3 model B+.

This is very helpful, thank you! Do you know how to completely get rid of LDXE and also to enable auto-login to XFCE environment so we don't have to put in the PW every time?
