Still get a message when antix starts telling me this is not one of their preferred Window Managers, even when I check the xfce box. Like to get rid of that somehow.
That belongs in the other thread...

Any good suggestions?
I should have posted this here instead of [antiX-19-a1-full (64 bit) available]. Anyway I am using antix now with xfce desktop running, (My preference) and it took some changes but managed to get it up and running. The best of both worlds? Let me tell you, it is challenging and I am up for it. I use both the GUI and the terminal often enough to get around things. The fact that this option is available if you search for it is awesome. Still get a message when antix starts telling me this is not one of their preferred Window Managers, even when I check the xfce box. Like to get rid of that somehow.
If you are open to a suggestion... I find jwm-space with tint2 and compton to work well. It's not to hard to learn; and, the jwm code seems to be quite nice and clean.
