I have not previously tried disentangling a distro from its delivered
desktop. In any event, it might be interesting to try XFCE.

Ah, that is very disappointing. After more than 30 years of using *nix,
I have not transitioned to the use of fora. The login necessity offends
nearly as much as systemd, but I find that several years go by between
logins to the unpalatable interface, so perhaps it doesn't matter much.

I'll remain subscribed to the Debian list, then, and ask my questions
there. I'll wait a while before unsubscribing from this one. And have a
look for other distros.

Thank you.
