First of all, an apology for my bad English . I would like to know if someone could help me: I have installed the XFCE desktop addon, but I don't get the panel, only the XFCE screen, that is, the lower task and notification menu. I am not an expert, but I have some time using this distribution and I have some experience, but I don't know what I could be doing wrong.
Thank you very much and best regards.

I can't help you myself. But I know the question that someone who might be able to will ask:
"How did you install the XFCE desktop?" Be specific. Via Puppy Package Manager? Using an ydrv.sfs you downloaded from where? Something else?

Checked both S15Pup32 & S15Pup64 and the ydrv addons for XFCE work as expected......
You do have to rename the download to just ydrv***** and then reboot - did you do this?

Hi pp4mklinux, thanks for your kind suggestion; actually, I'm a very stubborn man and for several years now I've been adapting to only 1 GB of RAM for my everyday PC, so I don't think XFCEFusilli would be ideal.
Best regards.

¡Thank you very much peebee!, the whole problem was in renaming the file. It worked like a charm.
Receive a warm hug.
