Hi All

Just wondering what the difference was between installing either

sudo aptitude --without-reccommends Lubuntu-Desktop

or

sudo apt-get install lxde

I'm thinking of trying the mini and then installing one or the other of the above, but i just dont want all the extras etc...

Many Thanks

One installs the 'lxde' package; the other installs 'Lubuntu-desktop'. What's the difference between those two packages?

This gets installed when installing lubuntu-desktop:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/lubuntu-desktop
And this gets installed when installing lxde:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/lxde

See the red dots (the dependency packages).
